Zach Garry

Rob is a highly skilled editor and copywriter. He's in tune with his instincts in both arenas – and handles the words of others with as much care as he does his own. Playful and professional in equal measure, he's a true creative and a true team player.

Michelle House

Mr Rob Binns, what can I say? A brilliant leader, a true wordsmith and an entertaining and informative presenter. Anyone who's had the pleasure of being mentored by Rob (myself included) grows as a writer, a creative - and a person. Consider this a 5-star Google review. (And an unprecedented 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.)

My responsibilities included composing official correspondence, writing press releases and articles for the media publication “Corrections News”, as well as general administrative duties such as using a database to locate prisoners and logging correspondence from offenders and the public. This position also allowed me to practice and polish my efficiency in using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel. Attached are some articles I researched and wrote for the March/April and May/June (2013) respective editions of "Corrections News".
