What clients and co-workers say πŸ’¬

"Lu is a great design leader who's passionate about designing products and systems that bring customer delight. I appreciate Lu's desire to always experiment and how quickly she's able to produce well thought designs with limited information. She's a great role model for any new designers joining the team."

Ken Li – Product Lead at TheoremOne



"Lucia added a lot of value during her three years at Nobly – from using insights to proactively come up with product improvements all the way to fine-tuning interface elements across our variety of platforms. She has proven to be proactive, capable of working independently, and able to work in our fast-paced (sometimes crazy) environment, across different timezones and geographies. Would work with Lu again."

George Urdea – Co-founder, CEO at NoblyPOS (acquired by Revolut)



"Lucia has been a pleasure to work with. Finding a designer who can take a project from initial idea all the way to final designs is very difficult, and Lucia does this great. Looking forward to doing more work together. Gracias Lucia!"

Nate Lassiter – Designer, Ballast Lane Applications, LLC



"Lucia's a star! I had the pleasure for working with her for two years at Nobly POS, throughout that time she constantly overdelivered and raised the bar. Her attitude and love of design put her in extremely good stead and I have no doubt she'll go on to do great things."
