You know, it really is all about relationships. I’ve had the good fortune to work with of some of the most talented folks in the Northwest, both graphic design and print industry professionals. Here’s what a few of them say about working with me.
Methodologie
“Nani knows more about printing and production management than anyone I have ever met. She is a consummate professional, great to work with, and her attention to detail is second to none. I recommend her highly!”
– Janet DeDonato, Managing Principal
“Nani is a rock star, from collaborating with account and creative teams to researching and recommending print production techniques. She’s also a press check expert and runs a very tight ship when it comes to managing estimates and schedules. And she’s pleasure to work with!”
– Dale Hart, Principal/Creative Director
cdesign
“Nani is surely one of the best-kept secrets (so far) in the Seattle area design and print world. Her solid and impressive experience—and her delightfully creative mind—contribute an invaluable spirit and expertise to any project.
“Combine this with her attention to detail and contagious passion for what she does and you have the ingredients for a very successful project every time. A genuine (bubbling, knowledge-sharing) joy to work with—and a professional gem. I consider her a valuable collaborator on any project.”
– Stephanie J. Cooper, Principal + Creative Director
Canopy
“While Nani’s extraordinary print management experience is practically a given, Canopy had the joy of discovering she is a superb copywriter as well. Nani did a fine job writing the majority of copy for the Canopy web site. It is no small task to collect, coordinate and make cohesive the thoughts and ideas of four people, but Nani did it with efficiency and grace. She simplified difficult concepts into easily understood phrases, giving us a web site that has proven to be an integral and effective marketing component.”
– Brenda Rossman, Founder and CEO
Seattle University Marketing and Communications
“…As a writer who frequently had the opportunity to work closely with Nani on a variety of projects, I always benefited from her ability to communicate coherently and purposefully. She added tremendous value to every writing assignment on which we collaborated. Nani pulls of that rare combination of creativity and organization, big-picture vision with down-to-brass-tacks detail. I observed and was part of a variety of projects that she deftly shepherded to conclusion and invariably the conclusion was a good one.”
– Mike Thee, Internal Communications Coordinator
“Nani was a well-respected and valuable colleague. She took tremendous pride in all her work, which raised the bar for everyone on the team. Whether it was high-end design, a multiple-piece project or a finely-crafted body of text, Nani applied all her years of wisdom in the industry to produce the absolute best work possible.”
– Terry Lundmark, Senior Designer
The Leonhardt Group / Leonhardt:Fitch
“Nani is an exceptionally knowledgeable and experienced print and production specialist. She is also a pleasure to work with and very collaborative on projects. I was fortunate enough to work with Nani early in my career and she did a tremendous amount to educate and engage me in the print and production process. Nani is constantly looking at all the creative possibilities for a project, while at the same time, conscious of the realities of budget and time.”
– Carlos Montalvan, Senior Designer, Howry Design Associates
Tomato Graphics
“I asked Nani to work with me to improve my web site content. She immediately cast her discerning eye not only on my content, but also on the flow and organization of the site as a whole. She provided me with a concise and skilled evaluation, set up a plan of attack, and we were off and running.
“In addition to bringing her extensive evaluation, management and writing skills to this project, she has also been a great coach, keeping things moving along at a steady pace. She’s made this process truly collaborative, which is exactly how I like to work. How did she know?”
– Rock Langston, the Top Tomato
What the print vendors say
“Printing by its very nature is a complex exercise which Nani handles with ease—from concept/design to finished product—as well as anyone I know. She is the master of on-time and on-price.”
– Oliver Iversen, Printing Today
“I’ve worked with Nani on a variety of print programs and her pre-planning, understanding of printing technology and professional manner all have contributed to the success of each project. Her attention to detail is impeccable. I know whenever Nani is managing a project it will be organized and run smoothly. It is a pleasure to work with such a professional who maintains a standard of excellence in all aspects of the project.”
– Anne Hess, Former Major Account Manager and
Business Solutions Consultant, K/P Corporation
