“Desiree has an individual flare for creating unique visions of branding that are exciting, and sometimes even jaw-dropping. She often goes above and beyond expectations, and I know that I can trust her to give us honest feedback.”
Desiree has worked with us as a designer and consultant for the last two years. She continues to impress me with her design skill and knowledge of making graphic content eye-catching, informative, and personally meaningful to our customer base. She works very well with the feedback of others—most of our projects start as conversations and include check-in points to review material and make sure her work is going in the desired direction. She is a great listener and I always felt heard and included in this collaborative process. Working one-on-one with her has been highly effective because there is no middle person—we talk about the concept and audience, she asks clarifying questions to help us hone what it is we are trying to create, and then goes to work. She has an individual flare for creating unique visions of branding that are exciting, and sometimes even jaw-dropping. She often goes above and beyond expectations, and I know that I can trust her to give us honest feedback.
