“Although I have worked with many skilled writers, it is Michelle’s ability to quickly ascertain the essence of an organization and to create an effective and compelling “voice” for the organization that sets her apart. She has been able to use these skills to write successful grants, compelling newsletters and marketing materials and engaging websites for Women & Family Life Center. Working with Michelle is a pleasure.

She recently provided web, writing and multi-media consulting services to the organization where I serve as the communications chief.

“…Michelle has also been actively involved in our fundraising efforts. She has created display posters for events, sent Evites, and established Pay Pal links to offer easy payment for donors and clients. She is well versed in using FaceBook as a social media marketing tool and helped us with editing tasks.

Finally, Michelle edited a long and complicated State grant application for our summer program, “Horse Trails to Learning” in 2011. The quality of writing and presentation resulted in the award of a $21,000 grant. She is a superb writer with clear, concise verbal skills.

In conclusion, Michelle has many talents that include design, marketing, technology, and writing skills. I would highly recommend her work. She is efficient and completes all tasks in a very timely manner. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.” – Chris Patella, CEO/Director, Animal Assisted Therapy Services

Educational Institutions

“Michelle Traub’s Culminating Project is testimony to her innate creativity, cognitive brilliance, and skillfulness in the realm of new media development and applications. Her 37-page thesis complies with every single guideline that is included in The Graduate Institute’s publication entitled Perspectives on research. The project is absolutely exemplary with respect to its organization and development. The executive summary is substantial in alerting the reader to the scope and utility of the website design. Moreover, the aims, research questions, and methodology are fulsome and informative. Indeed, Mrs. Traub’s writer’s “voice” is clear, authoritative, and compelling. Her innate ability to craft language that is uniquely descriptive and grammatically and syntactically correct enabled this reviewer to read the thesis with flow, fluency, and a testament to her commitment to the EHH program, its operational principles, and its vision and mission. …” – Andrew Summa, Ed. S, Ph.D, Ed.D., Vice President for Institutional Advancement, The Graduate Institute
