Louise is an exceptionally talented administrator and a pleasure to work with.  She supported me over a course of a 4 year project on equality of opportunity in the workplace by finding and organising interviewees from multiple professions. Louise also set up and managed a conference designed to generate ideas on how to act on the research findings. She inspires confidence and has excellent people skills, however senior the people with whom she liaises.  I recommend her wholeheartedly.
