I have had a number of compliments on the annual report. Thanks for making me look good.

Dr. Tom Johnson
Executive Director

We had a record year bringing in over $30,000 more than last year's appeal. Thanks for all your help with this!

Azure Christiansen
Development Director

Heather Starr is a remarkably talented development professional who fully understands the critically important role that relationship building plays in successful fundraising. She is intuitive to donor needs and is able to clearly articulate how the donor’s wishes and the charity’s needs intertwine. She is one of the most gifted development professionals I have had the pleasure to work with.

Heather did an expert job writing our annual report copy. She took the time to gain an in-depth awareness of Des Moines University's programs, people and issues and presented them in a concise, informative and very inviting manner. She also delivered copy on
schedule and on budget.

Kendall Dillon
Director of Marketing and Communications
Des Moines University


We are always looking for writers who can interview, write well and put ideas together in an interesting and clear manner. I know when I assign an article to Heather Starr that Core will get all the information readers want in a well-composed and compelling story.
