"I have worked with Crystal at Fluor over the past several years on several proposals and most recently...on preparation of a complicated set of technical writings for a Client's bid package. Crystal provided critical editing and formatting of the documents and was responsible for the final review and publishing. Crystal has a professional work ethic, works cheerfully and quickly and is always willing to pitch in wherever necessary to get the job done. She knows her work and her tools well. Crystal has a positive attitude and works well in a team. She is respected here at Fluor for being able to get work done in a timely manner and meeting her schedules. I have no hesitation in recommending Crystal to anyone looking for a positive, professional and competent approach to getting work done."

interest. She writes for the reader when it is called for, and yet has the ability to write for the educated. When Ms. Rawls takes on an assignment, she
shows integrity with her ability to be thorough and precise. She is someone who can think things through creatively and rationally, as well as being dependable
with deadlines. She is admired for her work throughout local print media.”

“Ms. Rawls’s academic and creative achievements at Baylor have been phenomenal. I would rank the quality of her work among the best dozen students I’ve had in
the past decade. Her fiction is particularly good. She is one of the very few college students I’ve ever encountered who arrived in college with a distinct ‘voice’ in her writing…. As for Ms. Rawls’ potential, it is unlimited…. She is a creative, original thinker, and has a lively imagination. She takes advice well and is a pleasure to work with.”

“I believe her to be a very talented writer, conscious of her material, highly attentive to details, good with people and creative in her delivery.
“… Crystal’s character is impeccable, and I have found her to be mature for her age, trustworthy and honest. She is a caring person, but can stand up to the task
until it is completed and can handle herself well with others.”
