Meredith was great! She made sure that she had a CLEAR picture of my vision. She took the vague instructions that I had provided than she expanded upon them with great detail. She asked me questions that I hadn't even considered ! She truly wanted to capture my vision without deviation. If you are looking for someone cooperative and willing to go the extra mile to bring your idea to life, SHE'S YOUR GIRL!

Jalen R., Seeker's LED Solution

Meredith is great! She provided 3 great design options, all of which were high quality work and hard to choose between. She was prompt, professional, and easy to communicate with. Will definitely go back to her with any future work!

Kavita N., CreativiTea Blends

Fantastic work. Meredith's design was frankly not what I expected it to be from a look/feel perspective. But it was far better than I thought it would be. Her artistic license was perfect for this short project. I asked her to make the images look good on a landing page. She did exactly that.

Never in my life have I worked with a designer who knocked it out on the first try until now. Meredith is super talented and quick and awesome. I'd 100% work with her again, and can't wait.

Katie P., The Binky Box

Meredith was awesome! She gave me 3 drafts to choose from and all were very articulate and hard to pick between. She went above and beyond to accomplish every thing ask of her. She even redid a 6 step instructions illustration after I didn't specify what I wanted from the start. Props for that. She was able to perform a broad range of different graphical jobs to complete this project. Abstract art, icon design, photo realistic glass, typography and illustration. All professionally. In the future, I know who to look for graphic design. Excellent job!

Jon P., Exocel

Meredith is fantastic, her designs look great for our new home decor product line and will definitely work with her again in the near future.

Hugo T., Emersion

Meredith was an exceptional freelancer that provided a very positive first experience on Upwork. Her design ideas were outstanding, so much so that I could not choose between two of them. Communication & availability throughout the project was never a problem, Meredith was always prompt with her responses and clear in her communication. She was very considerate of the "ideas" that I had and didn't hesitate when I provided specific requests or otherwise. I would recommend her to anyone!
