Bio
Karen Tinsley
Ashley impressed me by approaching the Credit Valley Hospital Foundation to volunteer her services as a writer to obtain some professional experience. Her writing portfolio proved that she was an excellent storyteller with a flair for subtle humour. Even though she was working full time at a summer job to support her education, Ashley was punctual, flexible enthusiastic and open to constructive feedback about her work. She also demonstrated that she is very adept at effectively managing her time. Ashley wrote articles for the Foundation quarterly newsletter and website. She met tight deadlines, and her work required only minor editing. She has since written for other websites and publications and has shared her work with me. I am quite impressed with Ashley's drive and determination, not to mention her talent with the written word. I would hire Ashley again in a minute and can recommmend her highly--she would be a delightful addition to your team!

I helped facilitate outreaches on social issues such as violence against women, addiction and mental illness. Aside from being involved in the activities, I produced promotional material aimed at attracting students to the events. I wrote advancers, contributed to advertisements posted around the campus, and wrote end-of-event reports that outlined the impact and success of the outreaches.
