Nice words from nice people
"I hired Anika a few months ago to design and brand a new podcast which was being started. I only had a brief conversation with her to share the creative brief, but even with that, she was able to quickly turn around and present options and variations.
Because she understood the idea, she was able to nail down exactly what I had in my mind right in the first go around, and make it better when we iterated on it a little further. Even though I originally requested for only an illustration, because of the way her process works, she ends up recording all of her work, and I got to see a nice time-lapse of the illustration come together which I am actually going to use as part of a different video.
Thanks for all the effort and a quick turn around."

“With Anika, I knew from the very beginning that I made the right decision in trusting her for my brand work. Her extremely fast turnaround, excellent communication reinstated that trust.
We are a startup and we needed a lot of hand holding in making our brand accessible to our customers and Anika goes beyond the design work and supports the startup with all the right help. I love the work Anika does for me.
Whether it is logos or illustrations, she has a unique and a lovely talent. Always prompt, sweet and super helpful with my deadlines and fuzzy tweaks. “

“I trusted Anika right away upon our first meeting and hired her for a special design job partnering with the learning and development team at Cannes Lions. She demonstrated a great understanding of my raw framework and vision, which she would dependably build upon and take to new heights.
I was blown away by her professionalism and creative generation throughout the project, from thoughtful analysis to surprising and original design variations that not only resonated visually but also delivered a language that brought cohesion and intelligence to the package.
She really knocked it out of the park. She’s also cool as a cucumber and has a natural and easy way of guiding people in the use of creative technology. I’ll work with Anika again any day on anything!”
