Hear from our clients first
She can take complex issues and help readers draw connections for better understanding.
Suzanne is a great freelance writer! She has been writing for “Torch” magazine, which we publish at Havergal College, for a few years. I am always impressed with her work: she is professional and creative and isn’t afraid to add personality in her work. She can take complex issues and help readers draw connections for better understanding. She works well with people of all ages, as we’ve had her interview subjects from the ages of 4 to 60.
She makes her interviewees feel comfortable and has a knack for figuring out how to incorporate their ideas and comments into our stories. As a writer and a communicator, I would highly recommend Suzanne for any writing assignment that you want your readers to feel connected to.
Susan Pink, Communications & Marketing Associate at Havergal College
On the ball, reliable and unflappable
Sue stepped into work with our team during a critical period at the end of a large project. She was on-the-ball, realiable and seemed unflappable – a real pro. I’m grateful to Sue for stepping in and and helping us deliver in a way we absolutely could not have without her.
Kimberly Bowman, Brookfield Institute
An excellent writer
Suzanne has worked on the last three issues of the Laurentian Alumni Magazine. She’s an excellent writer who never fails to tell an engaging story. She’s also a remarkable editor. Sue’s a joy to work with and I know I can always count on quality work from her.
Sachelle Violette, Laurentian University
A valued member of the team
Suzanne is a skilled writer and a valued member of the Triumph team. Not only does she write a variety of pieces from blog posts to brochures to emails, but she always has her eye on the bigger picture. Whether creating communications plans, editorial calendars or marketing documents for our recent product launches, Suzanne helps us all to keep our branding consistent and audience top of mind.
David Mackereth, President, Triumph Mobility
Punctual and organized
Suzanne is excellent to work with. She is very punctual and organized, never missing a deadline and always fast to respond to requests. I have used her for a number of projects and she’s very thorough and definitely takes pride in what she does. I highly recommend her editing services and look forward to working with her on more projects in the future.
