Arika Lycan 🏳️‍🌈

During our time working together Raina was a delight to work with. Raina was always quick to respond, ready to assist and jump in and help figure things out. Raina's technical knowledge was a huge asset to our team, and she often served as a translator between technical web items and my team, who did not speak "HMTL"! She offered creative solutions when we came upon a problem, and was willing to work alongside us to fix things.

Raina's knowledge of both web development and web design were valuable assets while i was working with her. Any issues that came up with creating, updating and maintaining sites were handled efficiently by her, and oftentimes she was able to upgrade to make the sites run even smoother. She has a thorough and innate understanding of what does and doesn't work in web design and is able to implement those insights to great effect. On top of that, Raina is an amazing illustrator and cartoonist, and a wizard with Adobe Photoshop. There have been many occasions where I had a germ of an idea for an illustration that I'd pitch to her, and she would create a fully rendered and colored illustration that nailed exactly what I had in mind. And her photo retouching and enhancing skills in Photoshop are second to none. If you ever have the opportunity to work with Raina, consider yourself fortunate.
