Bio
Daniel Thompson
G and I collaborated closely on numerous projects over the past 3 years. As a front end engineer, I appreciated the effort G put in to create a pain free design-dev handoff process. Her ability to translate complex ideas into intuitive and visually appealing user interfaces makes her an asset to any product team. She consistently demonstrates a deep understanding of user-centered design principles, ensuring that the products she designs not only look great but also provide an exceptional user experience. I can't recommend G enough. She's easy to get along with and always positive in the face of challenges. I hope we get to work with each other again in the future!

I worked with Gresshaa for over 1.5 years while I was on the Product and Growth teams at Metropolis. G has all of the design and leadership skills needed to help product organisations and businesses achieve their goals. She led much of our team’s product design for our web app, supported branding initiatives, and enabled our biz dev and marketing efforts with assets and collateral. First, G is an excellent designer and absolute world-class practitioner of the craft of product design. She has a knack for great UX, is incredibly detailed when designing flows and edge cases, and is a great communicator throughout her whole design process. Second, she consistently pushes her teammates to be better: she works from first principles, always advocates for users, and remains positive and steady during intense work sprints. As a product manager, I was always assured knowing that I could lean on G to help evangelise the
