"Stephanie helped us design a brand new awesome Dashboard for our web app. She has an amazing eye for design and also has excellent, relevant experience. We kinda knew what we were going for, though admittedly not exactly, and Stephanie was able to guide us. We iterated a few times to improve the design and we are thrilled with the final result. On a personal level Stephanie is a great person and professional. Excellent to work with. Great communicator, sense of humor, fit in like she was part of our team. Thanks again Stephanie, looking forward to our next project together!"

"I needed a logo. I had seen Stephanie's work for others and liked the variety and the timelessness of all of them. She looked at my work, took my needs into consideration and gave me a logo I would never have dreamed of! It's PERFECT. Photographers LOVE my logo. It's simple, states its purpose, does not detract from my work. The variations she gave me to tie it all together for marketing has made a huge difference in my ability to stand out. Quick, professional, timeless instead of trendy and you have a usable logo that will work!"

"Stephanie and I had the opportunity to work together on a project with Tech For Campaigns, where Stephanie was volunteering as the project's designer. Not only was I impressed by Stephanie's skill set, but she was a pleasure to work with. Stephanie was empathetic to our client's needs and met them with acute attention to detail. The result was a gorgeous and intuitive website that aided our client in winning re-election. Stephanies's proficiency with WordPress went well beyond the ordinary, but she did it all within the project's tight timeline. Her work was impeccable, but her friendly demeanor and well-earned confidence made this challenging project seem easy. I would gladly work with her again, and anyone smart enough to hire her can expect stunning results and a satisfying experience"
