As a design intern, Ellie showed really strong UX instincts in understanding the problem, gathering relevant competitive analysis and research, and asking questions about the various metadata contexts for badging before jumping into solutions. She was always prepared with her rationale and how her proposed solutions fit into the broader system beyond the immediate screen or component. Way to advocate for the user and your own well-reasoned perspective, Ellie!

Her ability to pick-up and work through the badging space was fantastic! We likely would not have been able to quickly pick up that project if it wasn't for her, so she was able to help us deliver against a program in a quick, collaborative way.

I have been consistently impressed with how quickly Ellie has picked up context to the My SiriusXM project and has made really intelligent suggestions for design solutions that the team seemed eager to take. I think that she is such a well-rounded designer in that she has sharpened and employed several skills to make the best design decisions possible.

Her work on Utility Group 3 was especially impressive: it's a robust, detail-heavy project, and she tackled it thoughtfully, piece by piece. She considered the full user experience — from primary use cases to edge cases — and her thoroughness was critical in advancing both the product and design requirements. I have a great deal of confidence that, when we hand Group 3 off to engineering, there will be few if any open questions because of the clarity and care she brought to the work.

On the Utility team we were moving quickly, trying to complete Group 3 designs. In one day, she created mid-fi designs for several primary page screens and empty states. She is excellent at moving quickly and creatively and she is great at making sure logic makes sense and is clearly documented.
