TESTIMONIALS

PhD Supervisor (at the time of project)

I think the output from her research indicated quite clearly Isabel’s ability to communicate and engender trust when dealing with senior corporate representatives, government figures as well as with local communities. As a person she is determined, competent, innovative and thoughtful. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
