Testimonials

"Carlie interned with us this summer. Looking at her deliverables and how she mingled with the team, it is hard to believe she was here just for three months. She is hardworking, self-motivated, and meticulous in her work. Carlie contributed to multiple projects and was always eager to learn more. She possesses a unique combination of UX skills, technical knowledge, and CAD expertise, which is rare. These talents were evident in her work on the AI-based tool, persona, and onboarding projects. Carlie is a pleasure to work with and will undoubtedly bring tremendous value to any team fortunate enough to have her."

"I am delighted to endorse Carlie for her outstanding contributions to our team. From the outset, she was fully engaged in the project, demonstrating a deep understanding of its core objectives. One of Carlie’s most impressive qualities is her ability to deliver work effectively. She manages projects independently with minimal supervision, consistently producing high-quality results while adhering to deadlines and paying close attention to detail. Her work on a crucial UX project showcased her skills, as she not only met all deadlines but also played a key role in the research and design refinement. Carlie’s ability for presenting complex data clearly and accessibly is commendable, making our project findings easier to understand and facilitating smoother collaboration with stakeholders  and larger team. Moreover, Carlie excels in teamwork, actively engaging with her colleagues and fostering open dialogue. Her positive attitude and proactive involvement in projects have been invaluable. I wholeheartedly recommend Carlie for any future opportunities. Her exceptional work ethic and impressive delivery will undoubtedly enhance any team she joins."
