"It has been a real pleasure to have Fi contributing to our blogging efforts. She has excellent writing skills, is comfortable working with Word Press and is a proficient social media user. The best part though, is that she comes up with blog ideas, pitches them and writes them in a very fast turnaround time. I would highly recommend her as a writing contributor to any team – a real pro and an utter joy to work with.”
