Chelsea was an absolute delight to have as an intern. Coming in at a very busy time, she really helped us get on top of the workload. Very quick to pick up on new tasks, she completed every one efficiently and to a high standard, as well as being friendly, reliable and fitting into the team well. We wish her all the best in her future career in publishing!
