Kacie is a talented UI + UX designer with exceptional visual design skills and a strong ability to empathize with the end user. Her final products alway showcase intuitive, visually stunning designs which balance to serve both product and business requirements. Kacie is communicative, thorough within her product process, and asks brilliant questions to get to the heart of any design problem. The skills she has spent time honing are the same aptitudes that make her a delight to collaborate with - she is kind, curious, and true to her vision. I highly recommend Kacie for a design position.
