What Clients are Saying:
"Cecilia is one of the best copywriters I have ever worked with. Beyond her writing ability, which is top-notch (just check her portfolio), she brings a fresh perspective and opinion to the articles that she produces. I think it's also important to note that Cecilia is a better copywriter than most I have worked with in-house, and yet, she's a contractor. I think that fact alone shows how well she is able to understand the project, synch with the material, and produce really valuable pieces."
— Craig Ishii, Enspira HR
"Cecilia is great. She never missed a deadline, communicates well, has relevant questions when appropriate, and has produced high-quality work. I absolutely recommend her as a content producer."
— Sabrina Gallier, Dash Energy
