Working with Yolande is a real pleasure. Yolande was a UX design consultant on large project we were running internally. She is incredibly easy to work with strong UX and communication skills. She generated user flows, wireframes and final designs using our design system. This role required creating the deliverables, presenting work and receiving feedback from the development team, design team and a third party provider. She listened closely to all the stakeholders and their feedback and came back with great recommendations and solutions. Her positive attitude and professionalism made her fit right into our team. All in all, I would work with Yolande in a heartbeat. She would be a great asset to any team!

Yolande is amazing! Her communication is excellent, her work is detailed and top notch, and she's patient with rounds of revisions. She catches things I never would have, asks insightful questions, and offers recommendations that are very helpful. I can't recommend her highly enough! I will continue working with her for many projects.

Yolande is a life saver! She always delivers on time which made me look good as a Project Manager. Her creative is always on point and she somehow manages to capture all of the client's wants with minimal direction. As for revisions, it was minimal. If changes were needed, they were done quickly. Every Project Manager should wish to have her as their Art Director...great attitude, fast, no pushback - instead she provides her creative recommendation visually with options. Any place is lucky to have her.
