“That moment when someone enters your work life with eagerness to learn & a beaming smile - that’s Amanda.
Accompanied with a wonderfully positive attitude and genuine willingness to help make every project a success for client & employer.”
Sammie Ho
Senior UI Designer at Concentrix Catalyst
“Amanda is more than a designer. She is an empathetic problem solver who has the ability to seek out, understand and frames things in a way that brings clarity to a design challenge.
When working with Amanda, I am always blown away with her depth of knowledge and attention to detail to all phases of the design process. She is an excellent facilitator in workshops, can navigate tough conversations and ambiguous tasks, always shows great initiative and puts in 110% to any project.”
