Nicka is always a class act, a wonderful storyteller and an excellent researcher.
Nickas’ research and presentation encouraged us, I think, to look deeper into our finds and be persistent in our research. Thank you
Great webinar - learned a lot about record searches and to keep looking even in places that you would expect to find anything.
The best ever! I learned so much and Nicka's enthusiasm is such a joy. Thank you!
