TESTIMONIALS

  • I've had the pleasure of working with Taylor, and I can confidently say she is the best designer I have ever met. Her versatility spans from email design to web design, and everything in between. Taylor is not only a superstar when it comes to strategy, but she continuously builds and refines processes to ensure efficiency. Her motivation and speed in tackling any type of work are truly impressive. Taylor can seamlessly own projects from strategy through to concept and execution, demonstrating a remarkable ability to manage the entire design process. What sets her apart is her process-driven mindset; she consistently creates methods to enhance efficiency in everything she undertakes. Taylor's dedication, creativity, and strategic thinking make her an invaluable asset to any team. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any design or marketing related role.

    Sarah Ulrey, Marketing Lead @ Microsoft

  • I always assumed a great Art Director would be creative; what I didn't expect was that she'd be so collaborative, focused on organization and timeliness, and a true advocate. Taylor's always willing to step in to keep you on track, isn't afraid to be honest about her own work or yours, and backs you up when she believes in your ideas. She gives credit where it's due, and always uses the word "we" when talking about a completed project. She knows when to lead, and when to step back. And most importantly, she doesn't just look at her job as "work" or her teammates as "co-workers" – she throws herself passionately into her career and the well-being and success of those she works with.

    Sara Censoprano, Associate Director @ Movable Ink

  • I enjoyed having Taylor as my manager for two years at Blue Nile. With a natural ability to lead, she made me feel respected, appreciated and understood. Taylor’s creative direction is always rooted in data and strategy, keeping the audience top of mind. Because of this she’s able to tell a story and connect the audience to a feeling, not just simply advertise a product. One thing that sets Taylor apart is her knack for organization, she’s gifted in improving and simplifying any process, no matter the scale. Most of all, Taylor’s work ethic is unmatched. She produces quality work quickly and has no problem stepping in to lend a helping hand if that’s what’s required. As a person, Taylor is just as wonderful. She’s intuitive, generous and reliable. The type of person who goes out of her way to help you. If given the chance I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Taylor again.

    Femke Paanakker, Junior Art Director @ Blue Nile

  • Taylor is an incredible designer and strategist. Not only does she have the creative ability to craft impactful and beautiful digital designs, but she also has the strategic knowledge to align those designs with larger business goals. This was exemplified through her revamp of the Microsoft Consumer Newsletters. She was able to revamp the look and feel while also prioritizing the newsletter real estate depending on the goals for each month. Her changes allowed the team to show clear positive impact on the various Lines of Business that leveraged the newsletters.

    Emma Savino, Digital Marketing Manager @ BECU

  • Taylor has all the qualities of a great designer - a willingness to always learn, the ability to take criticism on projects, and constantly looking for inspiration, but what sets her apart is her firm understanding of her audience, which allows her work to feel very personal. Her past job experience, freelance work, and self-starter mentality allowed her to excel in her position as a Senior Designer, providing designs for websites, print collateral, and corporate branding. Her ability to juggle several projects and meet quick turn-times without compensating quality of work was always appreciated by my team and me. Taylor's knowledge and skills would enhance any team's productivity and creativity.

    James Flores, Director of Marketing @ The Federal Savings Bank

  • Taylor is a passionate, dedicated, and proactive designer and visionary. I always enjoyed brainstorming with Taylor as she elevated each project with her ingenuity and drive for success. She dove head first into the role of Art Director, but wasn't afraid to help in other areas of the marketing department including improvement on processes and implementation. We are still using the systems Taylor put in place and are immensely better for it. I can honestly say, she never missed a deadline and operated proactively on every task. Additionally, Taylor brought a smart wit and playful mentality to our team, a true cultural asset.

    Kelli Rognlie, Director of Marketing @ Seattle Coffee Gear

  • Taylor is a true leader and would be an asset to any organization – she is collaborative, an excellent communicator, and has an educated, insightful point of view on top performing creative.

    Audrey Flatley , Director of Performance Marketing @ Blue Nile

  • Taylor is more than a senior art director, she's a marketing maven. There's strategy in everything she does. Additional super powers: simplifying complex projects and being exceedingly kind to her co-workers.

    Sabrina Gaffney, Marketing Copywriter & Brand Voice Specialist

  • I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Taylor at Blue Nile for the past two years, where she made a huge impact on our creative team. Taylor is highly motivated and knowledgeable about design and marketing trends and that informs her comprehensive approach to our brand’s campaigns. Her great eye for design, consideration of every angle in marketing strategies, and easy collaboration made her an invaluable asset to our team. Taylor stands out for her proactive approach to communication and her talent for fostering strong relationships with everyone she works with. She helped to push our brand forward to be more elevated and more relevant, especially in her art direction of our on-figure photography, where she was a driving force behind bringing more inclusivity and freshness to the brand. She adds immense value to any team.

    Caroline Dillard, Designer @ Blue Nile

  • Taylor is a unique creative. I was lucky to work with her at Blue Nile and cannot recommend her highly enough. She is a skilled designer with a quick, open mind and a sixth sense about design trends. She adapted quickly to whatever came our way, with an intuitive ability to foresee problems. Since we were a dispersed team, I appreciated her innate communication skills. Taylor is also down to earth, fun to work with, and always generous with praise for others on the team. I look forward to working with her again!

    Francesca Penchant, Production Designer @ Blue Nile

  • Taylor is a bright, vibrant, wonderfully gifted Art Director. She brings charm, charisma and a collaborative spirit to each and every photo set I’ve had the pleasure to share with her. I have reaped the benefits from her experience and instinct on multiple projects in the fine jewelry arena, both on-figure and table-top photography. Her guiding light leads to good things. Do yourself a favor, hire this lovely and talented creative mind for your next creative challenge. She is up for the challenge, and won’t disappoint.

  • Taylor combines vision, talent, and a commitment to collaboration and teambuilding. With every project she invites discussion about each part of the process, ultimately driving everyone involved to do the best job they can.

    Patrick Cotter, Marketer @ Sweeney Conrad

  • Her inherent eye for design, knowledge of her toolbox, and general go-getter attitude made her one of the most special people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She’s had a permanent influence on my own taste and skills as a novice designer, and is constantly teaching me new ways to better my work.

    Dylan Armstrong, Marketer @ The Moxy Hotel Group

  • Taylor is ridiculously efficient, super creative and did a great job as Director of Branding and Communications at Zaro’s Family Bakery. She is a brand champion whose forward thinking and innovative mind set was a huge plus for our organization. She is a team player, listens well to others and a joy to be around. Taylor would be a great asset to any team.
