What they say about Eva...

Jordan Sher
Author, Dark Shadows Hover

"Eva helped connect the storyline throughout the book. This allowed for greater flow with less extraneous elements that slowed the pace and might have confused readers. The result was a much tighter piece of writing. Her feedback gave me confidence I was on the right track but needed her added perspective to take the story to the next level. The publisher received the manuscript much closer to complete as a result of Eva's feedback."

Michelle Vilchez, Nonprofit Executive

"Eva provided excellent services around communication and marketing that impacted fund development and volunteer engagement at the Peninsula Conflict Resolution Center. We have always struggled to be able to tell our story and share our impact. Eva is phenomenal at capturing what we do and articulating it to a wide range of audience members. She’s a phenomenal writer and storyteller!"


Jo-Ann Byrne Sockolov
Strategy and Organizational Development Consultant

"Eva is sharp, quick, and organized, and these three qualities help her nail it when it comes to content development. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing her talents and professionalism in action while she has provided marketing content development services for PCRC. The quality of her work is excellent and has significantly improved the look, feel, and tone of our newsletter and website content practically overnight. Our readership is increasing and people regularly make positive comments about the changes."

Eva meets deadlines and is exceptional at managing projects."

Through it all, she maintains a calm and resolute demeanor, deftly meeting all of the deadlines in a fast-paced business."
