skills & certs

“I had the pleasure of working with Sadie Gibson during her internship. Sadie is a clear and consistent communicator, pleasant to work with, and demonstrates strong potential as a designer early in her career. She takes direction well, thoughtfully applies feedback, and has a sense of how to design within established brand guidelines. Sadie approaches her work with care. I have no doubt she is on her way to an exciting career in design. I would highly recommend her for any junior design position.”
