She is thoughtful, has a cheerful nature and is always keen to make sure we are happy with her work and to do the best thing for the magazine, which makes her a pleasure to work with. Her work always arrives on deadline, if not before, complete with everything I’ve asked for, and sometimes extra items to make my life easier.
