"I've had the pleasure of mentoring Leslie for nearly a year, and she brings a genuinely unique and creative approach to UX design. The passion for design systems paired with enthusiasm to learn responsive design shows real commitment to developing comprehensive skills, while the natural ability to think outside the box consistently leads to innovative solutions - from the wonderfully unique Mars project to an empathic and thoroughly well thought out ADHD app. This creative mind will undoubtedly make Leslie stand out in the field."

Making things with others is a 10/10 experience. Infinitely better than being a “design hermit”.
