“I thought Catherine McCarthy’s presentation was very effective-her delivery was masterful and her story line and visual aids made her engaging and non-threatening. She could present her ideas to any composition of audience and not come across as preaching. She put her authority into her stories and pictures. Certainly impressive.”
