“I have worked with Mel as my project evaluator on two heritage projects and have found her to be an invaluable part of the project team. She is super efficient, reliable, organised and insightful, with the ability to see right into the heart of the project and extrapolate exactly what is needed to make sure a first class evaluation report is produced. An evaluation report isn’t just about data and numbers and Mel goes that extra mile to talk to people involved in the project, whether as staff members, volunteers or participants and record their thoughts and feedback. She also has the ability to read people and situations and is very adaptable, thoughtful and sensitive. I know for a fact that Mel’s excellent evaluation report from the first project I worked with her on led to gaining successful funding for a second project. Mel is worth her weight in gold!”
