Appreciation from mentorship clients
“Thought of you today as I’m having one of those ‘pinch me’ moments this Monday morning. Little me would have never thought I’d be working as a designer in London. Wouldn’t have done it without you and your guidance. I’d like to express my gratitude and appreciation towards you and your mentorship :) You’ve got no idea how much you’ve helped! Thank you so much.”

“Emma has a unique skill of making you feel like you're not alone in your struggles while at the same time providing you with tools and steps that feel actionable and totally doable. She’s warm and easy to talk to, I definitely recommend chatting with her if you are feeling stuck or struggling with aspects of being a designer that they don’t teach you in school - politics, working with other roles, managing stress.”
- Amanda
“She maximized our time together by preparing a detailed portfolio review doc focused on actionables before the meeting, leaving plenty of time to dive deeply into challenging questions.
Her experiences within design and digesting multiple interdisciplinary subjects are invaluable and I left our session feeling uplifted and fingers twitching to open Figma with direction.”
