I Design for a Living. What do YOU do?

"Wendy worked with our intranet development group supporting over twenty thousand employees in a company with over five billion in annual revenue. Wendy had an amazing eye for unique designs and was able to implement some of the best engagement interfaces which are still in use today in both form and function. Wendy took my department through the UI design and development process, reviewed each evolution of web page development to validate we were on the right track and implemented our overall web strategies in sync with the bigger picture of employee engagement. Her designs were unique and innovative yet fitting to our culture resulting in the best employee engagement rollout in our history."

"Wendy and I worked at Discount Tire together on the Learning and Development team. During my time there we collaborated on the Leadership Development Program project. I was impressed by her graphic design skills and how efficient she completed work. Wendy has a precise attention to detail and strives to produce the highest quality of work. Many on our team consulted with her on projects and appreciated her creative recommendations. In addition to her wealth of experience and the fact that she is a highly talented designer, she is pleasant to work with, always willing to help and provides valuable feedback. During the time I worked with Wendy, I also saw her dedication to development and she continuously seeks ways to keep up to date on trends in her industry. Wendy is an asset to have on any team."

"Wendy is an amazing design architect. Her skills are second to no one I have ever seen. She has designed several graphics for products I was responsible for that have consistently drawn the attention of everyone that observes it. I would highly recommend her as the complete package. She is talented, professional, personable and creative. She embodies all that a designer/project manager should be."

"As a client of Wendy's I am extremely impressed by her professionalism and ability to interpret what our heart wants to achieve but our mouths cannot articulate. She takes the time to listen to us and our wishes and then is able to translate it into a better product for us. As a nonprofit, it is critical that we get our website correct. Wendy is not only planning, designing, developing the new site, but she is also revamping the existing site to be more user friendly, in the interim. If I am being honest, I did not design our website with our users in mind. Rather, I designed it according to my idea of "aesthetics". Wendy thoroughly examined our website, met with me to understand our organization and its goals, completed research, and shared her professional evaluation. Wendy explained that the first priority is to set up the site based on our visitors/users. She created amazing personas that represent our audience and has done an amazing job at enhancing our approach to certain aspects of our site. Her easy going yet committed demeanor makes it easy to work with her, while being held accountable to finishing tasks at hand. We are grateful and in complete trust in Wendy's competence and creative skills to revamp and build an amazing, effective website.."

"I was able to witness Wendy’s amazing talent during the three years I served as her manager. When she joined the department, I knew she was a talented graphic designer and web expert. I came to appreciate her strong knowledge of instructional design principles. She designed training modules and job aids that were used in the field by over 10,000 sales and service associates. She created on-the-job materials that were clear and easy to understand. The layout and visuals made her materials easy to use in a store environment. An important accomplishment was a training portal she created for learners to easily access their learning resources. I highly recommend Wendy.

She would be a valuable member of any training team."

"I worked with Wendy on the Instructional Design team at Safety Services Company. Wendy came to us with a positive, can-do attitude and was always eager to learn the process and was never afraid to make recommendations on improvements or jump in and make small changes that had big impacts. Her work was always thorough and professional."

"Wendy and I have worked together for nearly a year. She has helped and encouraged me when learning instructional design theory and techniques. She shares her knowledge and experience openly, always wanting to help others. Wendy is a team player and works well with others. She takes well designed scenes or projects and adds just that little extra bit to make it an impressive final product."

"I worked with Wendy at Meridian Cooperative, where we were both Instructional Designers. During her time there, Wendy was always willing to provide valuable feedback and meaningful input on projects. Her graphic design and organizational skills were extremely impressive, and often, I would seek her opinion on ways to improve the visuals or processes for my projects. Insightful and collaborative, Wendy would be a fabulous addition to any team!"
