Congratulations to Consultant of the Month - Finley!

Here's what students and fellow consultants had to say about Finley:

"Finley always locks in for our recording appointments. She takes detailed notes, makes all individuals recording comfortable, and makes recording appointments a lot of fun." "Finley’s feedback on my speech was extremely beneficial. She highlighted little nitpicks that, if fixed, could make me a much better public speaker."

"I got great feedback from Finley on my work, and I even learned new information on where I could practice speaking."
