Testimonials & Reviews
"Without Jacqui as a co-writer in this endeavor, it wouldn’t have happened. She helped organize my thoughts, instigated the process of writing and held my hand when I was obsessing over little things. Our weekly Zoom calls will become one of the positive things I remember from the pandemic. I can’t thank Jacqui enough for making this dream a reality."

New York Times bestseller
"Jacqui was able to comprehend and translate complex, highly technical military and intelligence concepts. She made sense of the jargon and chaos so that a reader could understand the world of Special Operations and clandestine intelligence collection. She always focused on including the human aspects of situations that were emotionally charged and high stress. I could not recommend her more as a collaborative partner."
--Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer (Ret.)

"I came to Jacqui without any experience or understanding of how to turn my dream of publishing my memoir into reality. She had a thorough knowledge of this complicated process and, wonderfully, was always willing to listen and guide me along the way. I could not have found a better partner."
