author who consistently meets all deadlines and always produces fresh work that
is highly regarded by not just our membership but our larger international

"Dear Steve:
This letter is to acknowledge your participation in
Developing the World Cup History Fun Test for our site. Your work was
excellent. The test on our site is getting very good traffic."

December 2007, Mr. Kraemer granted me permission to post his original letter.
"Steve Amoia has been writing for our e-zine, The Slayers News,
'About Dragon
Kenpo Karate,' since December of 2005. The consistent quality of his articles
shines through with his very clear and understandable writing style. Without
question, Steve's excellent work, including his ability to meet deadlines, has
greatly enhanced the content and class of our martial arts publication."

“Steve is very detailed oriented and astute at his ability to
analyze content for accuracy and consistency. I have employed Steve throughout
my organization by enlisting him in application testing of remote software
applications in relation to file editing and transfer actions. Steve continued
to provide smart research in areas where having the latest news and external
research tools is necessary to maintain a strong competitive and accurate edge
on the competition. I strongly recommend Steve to any organization looking for
someone who is very versed in the global newsgathering, editing and reporting
business environment. He is one person you will find that will ask the questions
you haven’t yet thought of asking."

Phil Ruiz was the former Team Leader/Editorial Systems
Manager at
the Los Angeles Times Washington Bureau.
"Steve has been an invaluable addition to Keeper Skool. His
writing pieces are always well structured and his research is second to none.
Steve has interviewed many
high level goalkeeper coaches and celebrities from around the world in the
Keeper Skool network and his interview techniques bring out a natural rapport
with respondents, allowing Keeper Skool to have what I believe to be some of
the most exclusive interviews in our niche today.
His fluency of Spanish and
Italian has also proved beneficial in translating interviews with high
profile goalkeeper coaches from both Italy and the Americas.
I recommend Steve to anyone
looking for a writer to help maximize their readership and boost their
content, online or off."
