"Working with Vanessa’s exceptional creative abilities is something I am very grateful for. We collaborated together on a number of video and design projects and her ability to conceptualize and convey the exact message and emotion required, is outstanding. Above all this, her project management and communication skills are to be admired too. She was our sole creative director managing multiple demanding projects simultaneously, as well as managing outsourced contract talent and developing our company brand strategy as we entered into a full re-brand process. I would recommend Vanessa in an instant, and welcome the opportunity to work together again."

"Vanessa was the Creative Director on many accounts where I acted as project manager. I have yet to work on a project where I am more proud of the creative quality and messaging we achieved on behalf of many clients across varying industries. Vanessa makes things happen under tight deadlines and, as I like to put it, turns water into wine when it comes to pulling together assets and the right team to achieve the project objective. She understands what it means to truly take on client branding and puts her all into everything she touches. Her calm demeanor is a joy to work with, and given the opportunity, I hope to have the pleasure of working with her again."

"Hi Vanessa : I know I told you that we are very pleased with the latest designs, but I wanted you to know that all the materials for the conference last week were very well received AND I got a “wow. beautiful.” from one of our partners when I shared all the pieces. Additionally, a company that we were talking to recently said that our website is very professional and makes us appear to be a lot larger than we actually are. So kudos and a huge thank you to you for making us look so good.”

V”anessa is the creative that brands want on their projects, period. I've witnessed this first-hand multiple times. Vanessa is a thoughtful, highly communicative designer that has the innate talent of plucking concepts and ideas out of your mind and producing visuals even better than you hoped. And, she'll do it over and over...and over. I'm grateful to have worked alongside Vanessa at Uhuru and know it won't be the last time our paths crossed. Creatives like Vanessa are hard to come by, and when you find talent like hers, you HAVE to keep them at the top of your rolodex. I'd easily recommend Vanessa to any company looking for a talented, diligent and thoughtful creative.”
