“I have known Sonia for many years in her capacity as Museum Development Officer, Access Officer  and Project Manager on other regional projects. I am therefore delighted to have had her manage our countywide Learning On My Doorstep cultural education project – twice now – as I know she has the right expertise to help us bring it to fruition. From the beginning, Sonia has been clear about the parameters of the project, taking time to understand what we want to achieve. Sonia has helped identify pinch points ahead of time, and is able to draw on her many years of experience to shape our ideas and find solutions where necessary. I have felt very comfortable handing over the control of project documentation, progress tracking and budget, all of which she manages in an efficient and timely manner. Equally important is Sonia’s ability to communicate with people at all levels which, with multiple partners and very tight timings, has been vital for our success. This clever juggling act is something Sonia manages with integrity – and bucket loads of patience!”
