Testimonials

On behalf of the whole team, we want to express our gratitude for all the work you did on the video guides. The project was fast and required a lot of modifications on short timelines. Every time we asked for something new or different, you said, “No problem. Let’s try it!” We sincerely appreciate all your wonderfully creative and detail-oriented work that made this extraordinary product possible!

– Faith Polk, Sr. Program Associate, and Alexa Roth, Program Associate, Center for Child & Family Studies


Amy has performed editorial, proofreading, and formatting work on marketing collateral and K-12 assessment items for our company over the past three years. Throughout that time, her communications and deliverables have been unfailingly responsive, timely, precise, and of extremely high quality. We are glad and grateful to know that we can rely on Amy for top-flight design and copyediting services at a competitive price.

– Greg Tucker, Test Development Manager, New Meridian Corporation


I have worked with Amy on several projects and used both her copy editing and publication design services. As a copy editor, she has a proven eye for detail and extensive knowledge of grammar without sacrificing the more casual voice we use for our training curricula. As a designer, she is able to take limited resources and turn client publications into pleasant and readable layouts with high-quality graphics. The final pieces are true to the client’s design aesthetic and often do not require further edits. Amy is also punctual in both her communications and adherence to deadlines. My team would work with Amy again without hesitation.

– Sangita Kumar, Principal & Founder, Be the CHANGE Consulting


Amy graphically designed Play, It’s the Way Young Children Learn, an online brief promoting the importance of play for early learning, for the Early Childhood Funders. She took our words and created a design that looks fantastic, offering suggestions along the way, and was incredibly easy to work with! She was clear in her communication, highly responsive, and we were incredibly pleased with the end-product. And Amy also knew enough Spanish to design the Spanish version, which was incredibly helpful. I would highly recommend her; we will be working with Amy on future products.

– Fran Biderman, Consultant, Early Childhood Funders


Amy is a true professional. She has been proofreading for Center for the Collaborative Classroom for several years and has contributed to the success of many of our products. She consistently meets her deadlines, deftly juggles our multi-step proofreading process, and is a true pleasure to work with. We so appreciate her attention to detail and thoughtful questions. Our products are always better after her review.

– Julie Pinkerton, Lead Production Editor, Center for the Collaborative Classroom


Amy is a brilliant, professional, and reliable copy editor. She completes her due diligence, is thoughtful, thorough, and concise in her feedback. I can always count on Amy to be part of our team and she has my highest recommendation.

– Mari Estrada, Co-Director & Faculty, California State University, Channel Islands


I have worked with Amy on numerous projects across multiple organizations. She is the consummate professional. Her work is immaculate and consistent. Often I was working on documents with multiple writers, and she was able to bring a consistent editorial voice to the projects. I would highly recommend her to others.

– Brentt Brown, Vice President of Sales, Mursion


I would highly recommend Amy Reff as a copyeditor. She was professional, met all her deadlines, and had excellent queries for our editors, always making sure that she was not only following our style guidelines but also keeping the author’s voice. She was a pleasure to work with.

– Emily Boyd, Managing Editor, North Atlantic Books


Amy’s work with our school’s accreditation report cover design, editing, and proofreading was so crucial. Her meticulous attention to detail caught errors even after multiple sets of eyes had reviewed the documents within our organization. She attends to every project with her full attention and is always extremely helpful and responsive to any questions we have along the way. She has never missed a deadline in all the years I have known her and worked with her. Working with Amy is one of the only things I look forward to when accreditation season rolls around!

– Elizabeth Berkes, Director of Faculty Development, De La Salle High School


Amy Reff was an invaluable contributor to the design of my book, George Orwell Illustrated, which I wrote with artist Mike Mosher. Amy is creative and flexible, with an eye for detail and a truly collaborative spirit. She helped tremendously with our race to the finish line.

– David Smith, Professor, Department of Sociology, University of Kansas


I really enjoyed working with Amy and she was my lifesaver for editing and finalizing my dissertation. Her help turning my often long sentences into a sharp narrative was invaluable.

– Carmen Strigel, EdD, Johns Hopkins University


As editorial manager, I’ve had the opportunity to work with many independent contractors, and Amy Reff is among the best of them. Amy is extremely responsive to her customers, and her sharp eye and editorial skills allow her to work across a wide range of materials and content areas. Amy’s technical know-how facilitates her ability to learn new technologies and navigate online environments with ease. From test items to technical reports, Amy has always delivered quality, production-ready materials within the specified timeframe. I am happy to recommend Amy to anyone in need of professional editorial services.

– Tere Jimena, Manager, Editorial and Production Services, Pacific Metrics


Amy is a very thorough and experienced copyeditor—she is detail-oriented, creative and reliable. Her experienced eyes were an enormous help on a huge website project. Amy significantly improved the quality of our content with her edits and suggestions. Amy was a vital part of our website launch’s success!

– Bianca Taylor, Communications Manager, TransForm
