Elisabeth is the kind of person that uplifts a team and its work as soon as she's up to speed. She cares deeply about the quality of her work, is driven to thoroughly understand a problem space, and has a strong eye for detail and craft. I’ve seen Elisabeth forge strong relationships with engineers, collaborating closely with them to ensure her work was understood and feasible while showing them what a partnership with design can look like. She brings this same dedication and passion to the design team, where she helps to build a welcoming, creative, and kind culture in which work is elevated and designers are engaged. I would strongly recommend Elisabeth for any team in which quality and collaboration are valued.

Elisabeth has two remarkable, defining attributes that make her a valuable asset to product development teams (and a pleasure to work with).
1) Elisabeth cares deeply about designing experiences that actually deliver meaningful outcomes for users. Many designers speak to user-centricity, but Elisabeth exemplifies this in her methodology, the way she seeks out inputs / is inclusive of inputs from different voices, and her approach to iterative, collaborative design. She's laser focused on UX that works.
2) Elisabeth has remarkable attention to detail. Forget edge-cases or corner-cases, E makes sure every account state, every customer persona, every product permutation is understood and accounted for. Product and Engineering partners can rely on her domain expertise to deliver thorough, well-thought out experiences that work for the business and customers love.

I had the pleasure of working with Elisabeth during her time as a UI Designer as part of our Product team at Outlier.org. She is an exceptionally talented designer who played a key role in defining the aesthetic and functionality of our LMS. She demonstrated a keen understanding of user experience principles, and was instrumental in defining and implementing the design system of our website - a framework that we still use today. In addition to her stellar UI work, she is also skilled in product management. This led her to contribute valuable insights that went beyond design aesthetics, enriching the overall product experience.
I have no doubt that Elisabeth will continue to excel in any project or role she undertakes. She would be a tremendous asset to any team seeking a creative, detail-oriented, and results-driven Product Designer.

She is a thoughtful and brilliant designer, and a caring & compassionate colleague.

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Elisabeth on two projects this year, benefiting greatly from her outstanding design expertise. Her Figma designs were instrumental in guiding the development of requested features, and she consistently demonstrated a proactive approach in overcoming technical challenges. Elisabeth's ability to swiftly generate new designs greatly contributed to project momentum.
Beyond her technical proficiency, Elisabeth proved to be a delightful colleague. Our collaborative dynamic was marked by effective communication, and she fostered a positive work environment by offering constructive feedback. I highly recommend Elisabeth for her exceptional design skills and collaborative spirit.

My partner and I were so overwhelmed with the day-to-day tasks of operating a cleaning business and finally decided we needed some project management help. Since we have two locations (Milwaukee, WI + Las Vegas, NV), we opted for a remote position. Since we’re a small business, we also opted for part time. It’s scary to take on roles!
It didn’t take long to realize we made the right decision. Elisabeth helped with hiring — which honestly, is one of the most challenging things in this business. She tirelessly searched Facebook jobs, Indeed, and other hiring tools to find, screen, and ultimately hire cleaning technicians in both cities.
She also helped with other day-to-day management tasks: The Tetris that is the weekly schedule…ever-changing based on employee availability, last minute client adjustments, etc. Client communication such as quoting, Q&A about their cleaning package, booking, reschedules / cancellations / account changes. And of course….the most intense daily task of employee communication. We have an online dashboard for all cleaners across cities and they all write in questions / updates / photos from jobs. Elisabeth was approachable and compassionate to the teams while pushing back and having strong boundaries when needed. Often an overlooked strength.
The short version:
I’d highly recommend Elisabeth for any project management / operational role.

Elisabeth is one of those Swiss Army Knives that you wanna keep on your person at all times; but in her case, it was all about her skills and how she brought so much to any project she put her hands on. I first met Elisabeth through a Blizzard Entertainment related project, and in short, she's skilled! She's self motivated, an energizer bunny full of ideas, and anywhere she goes is lucky to have her.

Elisabeth is an extremely hard worker who is constantly learning and growing in order to be at her best. Whatever she's doing, Elisabeth brings a wide-reaching expertise, passion, focus, and warm sociability that energizes and motivates those around her. Any team would find itself stronger and more encouraged to move forward with Elisabeth on board.

I met Elisabeth in the kitchen at work, we found out that we had signed up for the same stand up comedy class. She immediately engaged in conversation and made it comfortable to chat with her. One of her greatest qualities was there the moment we met, the ability to understand her audience. From there we worked on several projects for the platform team we were on. All these projects were around bringing people together. Elisabeth is sharp, pays attentions to detail and is one of the hardest working people I have ever met.
She would spend hours of overtime finishing our projects after a long day of department demands. Creating beauty and design to bring people together truly energized her. She is extremely organized and quick to turn out concepts and ideas. She displayed an array of talents over the different types of projects we worked on. Apparel, team branding, building beautification. I'm happy I got the chance to work with her and would do it again!

Elisabeth came to SURG Restaurant Group as a highly recommended creative mind... she quickly showed herself to be an expert with the world of social media with forward thinking ideas regarding Twitter, Facebook, Yelp, Google Places, Foursquare and probably more tools that I don't yet know about! Beyond her amazing knowledge of these media outlets, Elisabeth quickly established herself as a great asset to our team with her knowledge of Milwaukee and the contacts she had within the tourism industry. Finally, it would be the largest mistake if I didn't mention her skills as a graphic artist and videographer. Elisabeth went the extra mile to contribute to the marketing and events teams by designing flyers and check inserts in her free time that really elevated SURG's print presence with a distinctive flair. She videotaped events and created montages for YouTube that introduced us to a new audience. I am proud to have worked with Elisabeth and to have learned from a colleague!

I have been in Product for many years and have yet to meet a mind as creative as Elisabeth's. In my time working with Elisabeth at AudioEye, she was able to take wireframes and turn them into products that were not just usable and visually appealing but lovable. She has attention to detail like I have never seen, and everything she does is polished.
Her abilities span beyond product design - she's able to create the most beautiful and compelling decks, PDFs, and any other type of collateral you can think of, so she'd be an asset to ANY company that needs any product, UX or visual design.
You can find all of these on LinkedIn.
