I have had the pleasure of witnessing Catherine's considerable talents as a curriculum developer, writer, editor, and proofreader up close and on a daily basis. She was my teammate and "right hand" for more than a year as we undertook the comprehensive revision of a Grade 6 writing program. Throughout this fast-paced and demanding project, Catherine's abilities shone. She is a stellar writer who never misses a deadline, a proactive communicator and problem-solver, an insightful editor, and a meticulous proofreader. She is professional, creative, personable, and one of the hardest workers I've ever met. In short, Catherine was vital to the success of the project, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I worked with Catherine closely on a K-6 vocabulary comprehension program and was continually impressed by her professionalism, attention to detail, and prompt delivery of quality content. Catherine is exactly the kind of writer and curriculum developer that an editor hopes for—thoughtful, deeply knowledgeable of and sensitive to her subject matter, and precise in terms of content presentation, consistency, and grammar. In addition to her strong writing skills, she has an eagle eye for errors and inconsistencies and is an exceptional editor and proofreader. While Catherine is a collaborative team player, she is also a natural leader because she sets such a strong example and is calm and clear-headed in the face of challenges. She was deeply respected and emulated by her fellow curriculum developers. Finally, Catherine is simply a delightful person to work with. She is kind and compassionate, and never fails to see the humor in even the direst situation. I would absolutely recommend Catherine for any writing, editing, or project management role and would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.

I worked with Catherine during the editorial phases of more than one multi-component, multi-year program. Always professional, knowledgeable, and proactive, Catherine is the kind of colleague everyone hopes to work with. She is a very talented editor and is as comfortable discussing the big picture as she is figuring out the smallest of details. She was not only familiar with the content and pedagogy of the program but also tuned in to the minutiae and aware of any potential issues that impacted other components. I highly recommend Catherine's work, both professionally and personally.
