Testimonials
I would HIGHLY recommend Jan for any person or organization looking for someone to effectively communicate their brand, vision, or mission. We worked with Jan to strategically rebrand our nonprofit organization (Domenica Foundation) and relaunch our website. Jan takes the time to really get to know you and your organization — she finds the voice and communicates it to your stakeholders. Not only did Jan write all of the content on our website, but she also worked with our web developers to manage and streamline the creation process. We could not have relaunched our website without her. We were so happy with the result that we’ve continued to work with Jan on monthly blogs, e-letters. and website updates.
Jan is organized, efficient, knowledgeable, talented — and also a pleasure to work with! We are continually impressed with how she represents our organization and have received many compliments on our new communication strategies. Reach out to Jan — you will not be disappointed!

Jan takes the lead on getting the newsletters out and scheduling blog posts and product promotions that make good sense. Jan is both collaborative and action-focused. Working with her has saved me untold time and energy.

To me the best thing you can say about someone is that he or she makes it easy. Jan made it easy to produce a perfect newsletter. Jan effectively boils down complex information so all readers can understand it. This talent was critical to achieving our goal. Jan is also a delight to work with. She is organized, on time, open to feedback, and collaborative.

Imposing logic and order on draft content seems to be her specialty!

I rely on Jan to help shape and craft my writing. Most recently, she has given outstanding and invaluable feedback on organizational structure and clearly presenting ideas for a book chapter and report. She really gets the issues and always has valuable insights about points to strengthen or bring into my writing.
