CLIENT REVIEWS
Scott Whitaker, Director of Stewardship & Development, Diocese of Austin
"JoAnn has been a great addition to our team. When I reach out to her to complete a project, she always responds positively and completes the projects on time. She also brings a great understanding of the Catholic Church and Fundraising. On multiple occasions, she took my idea and offered excellent changes to make the print project better. I am grateful for her positive attitude and outstanding design skills!"
Gina Kerley, Director of Development Holy Family Catholic School & St. Dominic Savio Catholic High School
"Working with JoAnn was such a breath of fresh air. She “gets” it. She has an abundant amount of talent and creativity and understands marketing, communications and fundraising, particularly within the Catholic workspace. Our annual appeal fundraising materials turned out amazing and had a bigger punch when it came to being “seen” amongst everyday “mail” thanks to her use of “out of the box” thinking for our mailing envelopes."
Stephanie Mahoney, Head of Communications, Mary's Meals USA
I really appreciated working with JoAnn on a few projects for Mary’s Meals. We needed to breathe some life into some old-standing documents and that’s exactly what she delivered. What’s even more impressive is that she was able to balance a fresh look while still maintaining our brand guidelines. JoAnn brought creative problem-solving to the table and I am looking forward to be able to work with her again!
Sue Winer, Development Coordinator, St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church & Student Center
"Working with JoAnn has been a blessing! STA needed a refreshed means through which to communicate with our Alumni, Parents & Friends. JoAnn’s clarity of message and visual flare helped us do just that. Our newsletters and appeals are reconnecting us with our extended family and the response is tremendous!"
Mike St. Pierre, Executive Director, Catholic Campus Ministry Association
"JoAnn's copywriting is on point. She knows how to craft a message that will bring in substantially more donations and simultaneously cast a compelling vision."
Deacon Chris Korte, Director, Catholic Newman Center at Truman State University, Kirksville, Missouri
"In the years that I have worked with JoAnn, we have made tremendous strides in improving, and repairing, our outreach and development. JoAnn in particular has been there for me above and beyond, as a real “go-to person.” She has advised me on communications, procedures, best practices, design, software/database, and has been a trusted consultant for me in numerous ways. I know I can depend on her and have confidence in her leadership and vision and know-how. She is so organized and on top of things. I am in awe of her ability to organize and move a project forward, and her ability to just simply speak to people. She is a real problem solver, and has innovative ideas. She has helped me craft and design many mailings. She helps me think through what I am looking for and need, and together we work on what we are trying to say. And she takes the raw material of my own message, or the testimonies of others, and the pictures we have captured of our community, and she puts it together on paper, and makes it come alive!"
