Bio
Frances MacKethan
Guneet is an excellent designer who communicates clearly, solves problems creatively, and is equally as good at collaborating as she is at leading. Guneet and I have had the opportunity to work together throughout our time at ToDooly and collaborated on product development. I was immediately impressed with Guneet’s organization and ability to lead design discussions within a cross-functional team. She’s able to tackle multiple projects at once and produce impressive work within short deadlines. Additionally, Guneet brings a lightness and humor to every meeting that is much needed when working as a remote team. Guneet would be an asset to any team not only as a designer, but also a confident decision maker, leader, and collaborator.

I've had the pleasure of working with Guneet for about a year and she has been nothing short of fantastic. She came into our company as our Design Director but quickly began wearing many hats, helping us move both product and growth milestones forward. Guneet built and designed our entire website by herself! She has proven she can take projects from idea to implementation on her own but at the same time, she is an incredible collaborator. In her role, she managed a small design team with both in-person and remote employees, lead the development and launch of our new brand, and updated our UI/UX for both supply and demand side of our marketplace. She's a rock star!
