What clients and co-workers are saying

"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)
