In addition, Dawn has earned the distinction of Microsoft Certified Application Specialist (MCAS) Instructor which recognizes her expertise with Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows Vista, a certification held by a select group of fewer than 50 people across the entire United States.

Dawn has written 3 books and created more than 50 self-paced software training videos on Microsoft Office, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft PowerPoint.

Dawn understands and can speak "geek speak" but prefers plain English with clear explanations. Her experience and credentials are demonstrated not by an overuse of lingo but by helping clients and others to be more productive and less frustrated by their software tools- she strives to generate mental light bulbs not glazed looks.
