"Elizabeth has a gift for understanding how digital solution customers not only interact with but connect and relate to electronic applications and tools. She is able to articulate and delineate how to empower digital solutions to incorporate that understanding. Thus, while many on our team talked about our analytics tools "User Interface," Elizabeth stepped back, looked into the market, and truly understood our client personas. Then she was the voice of the company in driving our UI to connect and bring value to those personas. And she did this by communicating clearly to me and others her vision and plans. Should you have the opportunity to hire this bright, warm, and engaging person, do it.

She showed a high level of talent and skill as an interaction designer and was often able to provide unique solutions that improved the overall user experience. Elizabeth also was able to lead a goal state redesign effort that required a combination of strategic level thinking, project management, client management, information architecture, and design skills.
She managed to juggle all of this and keep the stakeholders quite happy. I would rehire Elizabeth in a minute and recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated user experience professional that's able to take a project and run with it.”
