Bio
FJ van Wingerde
Manuela excels at listening and collaborating like few other visual designers. Working with her was always a joy because of how fearless she was in asking questions, digging as deep as necessary, to get to a place where her designs reflected the knowledge and expertise, but also the constraints, of the whole team. Either by herself or when directing other designers, she achieves excellence without cracking under stress.

Manuela and I worked on Brandon Generator; a creatively challenging task. Manuela's ability to take creative concepts and turn them in to understandable designs is second to none. With such a challenging project it was important to not only provide detailed designs but to articulate to the developers how these designs would come to life. She is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with her again. I would definatly with Manuela again.
