"I highly recommend Lisa Foss as a transcriber.  She has worked for my company BAM Transcription for more than a year. She has all the ingredients of an excellent transcriber: Her English is superb, spelling, grammar, punctuation. She is reliable, punctual and a pleasure to work with. You will not be disappointed!"

"What would we do without you to be giving this such TLC to make sure it looks perfect? I thought I had it about as ready as it could be, but you have taken it above and beyond, and I'm mightily impressed!"

"Lisa Foss has done a variety of work for us, including graphic design, technical pre-press production, website design and management, office management, ad sales, and just about anything else that needed to be done. She is self-directed and efficient. She learns quickly and is able to organize systems to maximize efficiency. Lisa’s design work is excellent, and she works well with clients (even the difficult ones). Her technical proficiency is impressive. For us she has worked with Photoshop, Quark, InDesign, color management software, a troublesome website design system that she inherited from someone else’s poor decision, a drum scanner, and various programs that download and upload projects to printers, advertising media, and others. If she encounters a problem, she figures it out. I highly recommend Lisa’s work."

"Lisa has always been my go-to for any graphic design or creative questions. She has many years to back up her extensive knowledge. Her expertise shows through in her work, her answers to questions, and creativity. I know her as a perfectionist, and she provides nothing less than perfect."

"While under my employment, Lisa was responsible for promotional projects from start to finish. Often she was only given a rough idea which she transformed into consistent , attention-getting designs that were used for marketing campaigns. She also was responsible for the publication of two books of historic photos which included advertising the project, collecting submitted photos, toning, page layout and design. Working directly with the printer, she did an excellent start-to-finish project twice over."

"Please tell Lisa I think she did a FANTASTIC job with everything:  the coloring on the photos, layout, etc. She is very talented! I hope I can meet her some day."

"I  loved this issue of The Times. The ...  advertising is impressive. It feels like the business community is realizing this is a great venue for advertising, judging by the increased number of large, color ads. It’s robust and very cool!"
