Testimonials
“We believe we are pursuing the pinnacle of design for everyday business apps working closely with the industrial design legend Hartmut Esslinger. Kristy has been an amazing and very important addition to the brand and design team to visualize and facilitate this design leadership. She initially came on board as visual designer and began helping to set the overall product design agenda through a strong understanding not only of all technical details but also of the larger picture of user experience, quality, effort and important milestones. Most impressively, she will forcefully make sure to see things through to completion, so we have quickly come to depend on how well she understands the business priorities, manages her own time, and helps everyone stay on track. She presents her work professionally and comprehensively with a high level of confidence.”
