Testimonials
I totally enjoyed working with Jeanne! She was professional and really understood what The Street Smarts does. I so look forward to using the series of Individual donor letters that she produced!! You can't go wrong with Jeanne. She has my highest recommendation and I would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to any one in need of a quality writer like her.
It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Michael Campbell at The Street Smarts. He is passionate and dedicated to his organization’s mission to provide a unique conduit for qualified, ambitious, and underrepresented young professionals to discover career opportunities available in Finance and Accounting. Michael communicated clearly and concisely and was quick to provide me with any materials I requested, which led to the project being completed ahead of schedule. I would jump at the chance to work with The Street Smarts organization again in the future!
