September 2014 To whom it may concern,

Re: Sherry Cullen I have known Sherry, as her lecturer and tutor, over the course of the last two years. During that time she undertook courses I conducted: Introduction to Real Estate and Property Development and the Property Development Process. I can confidently say that Sherry has proved herself to be a dedicated student with a good work ethic. Sherry regularly attended lectures and tutorials and consistently had undertaken assigned exercises in preparation for these. Her enthusiastic nature supports a friendly and courteous attitude to both faculty and other students. Sherry’s efforts have resulted in a very strong academic record across various challenging courses. This comes from a strong academic capacity and a good work ethic. Sherry’s strengths appear to be based around her ability to work collaboratively with diverse groups of students and faculty. This allows her to be adaptive in the way she can take on new and challenging tasks. This is largely evidenced with Sherry undertaking courses both in Urban and Environmental Planning and in a Business degree, which are offered in very different faculties and schools. I consider that Sherry would be a suitable applicant for any employment position in her areas of interest. Regards
