"The newsletter for the Faculty of Engineering was often held up by the leadership of Development, Alumni and University Relations as the best of its kind on campus. This was a great source of pride for our faculty's development office. The quality of writing and the standard of production were consistently high, and reflected well on the faculty and the University while garnering a great response from the alumni readership. This can be attributed to the editorial ability that Patrick McDonagh brought to the enterprise. His affable, relaxed working style, ready humour and willingness to collaborate and adapt made the process of publishing a newsletter a highly enjoyable one." Terry Tobin Director of Development, Office of Development, Faculty of Native Studies, University of Alberta. Former Development Officer for the Faculty of Engineering, McGill University, Montreal
"Patrick McDonagh is a low-maintenance consultant who always delivers on time (sometimes miraculously fast) and exceeds expectations. He takes big, awkward documents and transforms them into polished, readable and convincing texts that we can really use in our corporate and health communications. Patrick knows how to listen to scientists and researchers working in every discipline. He helps them express what makes their work exciting and relevant." Katherine Morrow Program Officer, Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay, Quebec
"Patrick's work has always been of a consistently high standard and his thoughtful, patient and easy-going manner make him a pleasure to work with. He is meticulous about deadlines, and provides intelligent, lively material while conforming to the specified requirements of length and content." Helen Dyer, Director, Dyer Communications, London, England. former Communications Officer, McGill University, Montreal
"Patrick McDonagh, as consulting editor of the McGill Engineering In Focus newsletter, was an invaluable partner from start to finish of the semi-annual 16-page newsletter sent to alumni, donors and corporate friends of the Faculty. Readers range from engineers, architects and retirees, to CEOs and to HR directors, to donors with environmental interests. Patrick's keen intelligence and understanding of te of technology helped him create content for all these audiences without dumbing it down. Reliable as both a print project manager and an interviewer, we never hesitated to have him interview our Faculty's VIPs. His charming personality is a well enjoyed fringe benefit - a lovely complement to his finished products, which never disappoint. I would strongly recommend Patrick McDonagh for any writing or print project coordination, but particularly for a firm seeking to have a competent hand at rendering technical information both accessible and intriguing." Robyn Ouimet, Managing Director, Sila Creations Formerly Development and Alumni Relations Officer, McGill University Faculty of Engineering
