How This Rate is Calculated

Based on national averages for experienced designers in the Chicago area, Bette's rate is estimated to be around $125 per hour. Considering her extensive experience in design management, project management, and production management, she is likely to command a premium rate. However, her location in Oak Park, Illinois, and her background in fine arts suggest a slightly lower rate compared to top-tier cities like New York or San Francisco. This estimate is also influenced by the fact that Bette has worked with top brands and educational publishers, which may have required her to manage budgets and contract legalities. Nonetheless, her skills and experience position her for a competitive hourly rate in the mid-to-high range.
