  • What a wonderful year it was working with Emma! Emma worked with me on bringing to life the visual identity for an exciting new creative concept and brand campaign at LoveCrafts, ‘Makefulness’. She made sure she understood the brief by asking great questions, soliciting feedback throughout the process and pushing design boundaries to make it feel distinct yet on brand - no mean feat! Not only is she brilliant at design, she’s also a pleasure to be around with an infectiously positive outlook. Hire her!
