I am writing to confirm the fine character of Melissa Ong, whom I have known for two years as a senior lecturer at Falmouth University.
As her personal tutor I have seen her produce academic work of a high standard, successfully collaborate with her peers and other academic courses; she has also worked with many professional event service providers outside of the university on a number of occasions.
Amongst the broad range of subjects that she is reading for her degree are; Professional Studies, Collaborative Planning, Live Cultural Event Project, Business Practice and Marketing.
I have had the chance to get to know Melissa and can confidently say that she a person of very good moral character.
Melissa always operates with integrity, Melissa is hard working and dedicated; she also sees her individual and team tasks through to completion
On a personal level, may I say that I implicitly trust Melissa, and I have no doubts about her abilities to succeed in the future and to be entrusted with high levels of responsibility.

Melissa assisted at the Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival both in the planning and also the festival itself. Having volunteers assist at festivals such as this and other smaller events such as Games on the Moor which Melissa was also involved with is invaluable. It always takes a little time to get up to speed on what is required, and Melissa managed it efficiently. I would like to thank Melissa for her help.

At Agile on the Beach you simply got on with the job at hand and made sure that your space worked well. You perhaps need to create a more confident persona in order that speakers and committee see you as managing the space/activity. You followed direction well and played a key role in the team to deliver a highly successful conference.
