Colin was great to work with! He was able to take the basic concept I had created and transform it into a great-looking and highly functional product. Colin took the time to educate me on the best possible approaches and was very communicative throughout the entire process. Accurately depicted estimated timeline from the start of the project, and kept me informed regularly throughout the entire process. Very professional and truly wants to help bring concepts to life. If I had another product idea lined up, I would definitely reach back out to Colin."
"Colin is a true pleasure to work with. In addition to being a talented designer he is responsive, a clear communicator, and excellent at setting expectations. Colin was collaborative in creating a timeline for the project that was both realistic for him and met our needs, and did a perfect job of translating a very rough sketch and spec into a complete file that we will be able to send directly to our manufacturer. I was impressed with how little direction he needed and grateful for his flexibility and how well he responded to feedback. Would absolutely recommend working with him!"
