Professional Recommendation via LinkedIn

"When Caroline joined Coldwater Creek as a proofreader for digital and print collateral, I knew immediately that she was going to be a valuable addition to the team. Her meticulous attention to detail and keen eagle eye caught the attention of all who worked with her. But then, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that her skills did not stop at exceptional proofreading. When given the opportunity to try her hand at writing promotional emails, she wowed clean, concise, impactful copy paired with subject lines that begged to be opened. I would be truly honored to have the chance to work with Caroline again."
