It is with pleasure that I provide a professional reference for James Morrell.

I have worked with James since early 2011 when he was employed at the Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining (CSRM) at The University of Queensland. I have continued to work with James since he established his own digital communications consulting company.

In my four years of working with him on a variety of complex projects, I have found James to be one of the most organized and thorough young professionals that I have come across. Most notably, he has a highly ethical approach to doing business.

A proactive attitude, an ability to work autonomously to problem solve, and a capacity to produce high-quality work are amongst his greatest assets.

James has produced well-written digital content, engineered and produced a podcast series with industry professionals, edited reports, typeset and designed print materials to publication standard, developed websites and digital communications strategies, rolled out online marketing campaigns, drafted press releases, and provided valuable advice on establishing new initiatives.

James brings a welcomed enthusiasm and energy to his work which makes him a valuable member in any team. His client-focused attitude and technical leadership help to bring people together, while remaining ‘on-task’. He also delivers on budget.

I hope to continue working with James in the future, and can strongly recommend him to any prospective employers or clients.

Your sincerely,

Assoc. Prof. Deanna Kemp
Deputy Director, Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining
