Communicator: I like to say, “You can’t spell Communications without Commins!” Even in my previous IT positions, my strong communications skills were highly praised. Not only did I manage large-scale systems and projects and keep everyone well-informed, but I frequently taught people how to use their computers and software. In addition to writing articles on my blog and elsewhere, I’m well known by narrators for the advice I’ve offered and knowledge I’ve shared in Facebook groups, emails, and private consultations. As a narrator, I love interpreting the words on the printed page and creating a pristine recording that allows today’s ultra busy people to take a mental vacation.
