"Carrie has well rounded experience in health, nonprofits and writing for a variety of audiences. I hired Carrie to author a manual on fundraising and she provided illustrations from her experience that enhanced the quality of the manual. She is web savvy and can write in a variety of formats too. I'd recommend Carrie and be happy to work with her again."
