About Caroline Bonham
Caroline Bonham works at CIVA Communications, a business she ow
ns
and operates with her partner, Dwight Coughlan. The focus of CIVA Communications is corporate
and commercial video. Dwight is the producer and Caroline is the writer but says her role is much more than just writing when you own a business. "When you work on
your own, you're a communications generalist involved in business development, cli
ent management, account management, office
administration, PR and marketing." Bonham's
role is extensive and she loves the variety of being in communications and staying up-to-date on a variety of topics. "I have to get up to speed on everything from 347-volt
lighting systems to biologic drugs to juice manufacturing."
CIVA Communications is active in the community by providing in-kind donations of communications services to some select charities and nonprofit organizations.
