Richard Neukranz & Associates Inc. March 10, 2005 To Whom It May Concern: I am writing in reference to an extraordinarily talented, skillful, bright, ambitious and patient graphic designer and
software consultant. Leigh Anne Tompkins is all of these, and more! I was recommended to her and would like to pass along this recommendation to companies who need professional graphic design, full creative art services, software consultation and/or personal software instruction. I have been heavily involved in the direct marketing industry as a freelance copywriter/designer for more than 20 years, and have worked with companies and entrepreneurs throughout the world, including the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia. Recently I purchased a Macintosh computer and Adobe creative product software, which led to my introduction to Leigh Anne. Prior to this I had been working exclusively on PC (using Corel software for art applications), and due to my consistently “busy” schedule, it is essential that I am “up and running” quickly with as brief a ‘learning curve’ as possible. To this end, Leigh Anne has been indispensable to me as a teacher, mentor and technical support specialist. As a self-employed individual, my predominant need is for fast, reliable, accurate, and well-defined answers to questions specifically
relating to software applications. Leigh Anne is what I would call a software “master” and her breadth of knowledge appears to be limitless. Currently I have been working with Leigh Anne on an as-needed basis, corresponding via e-mail. However, I have personally been to her studio and have seen samples of her work which are astonishing. Any company who is looking for a one-stop source for creative services would be well-served by Leigh Anne Tompkins. I highly recommend her. She is thorough, analytical, creative, and experienced. Leigh Anne knows the graphics and printing industry intimately and can take any project from idea-stage to finished product with complete unsupervised
proficiency. I am available to discuss Leigh Anne’s capabilities in further detail at my phone above. With Sincere Recommendation, Richard K. Neukranz
