  • "In a world where everyone over-promises and under-delivers, Nicole did the exact opposite! She DELIVERED! I was so impressed by the level of detail and thoughtfulness she put into our project. All of the documentation was professional, useful, and timely. I felt like a CEO while I was showing the documentation she made for us to my family at dinner."

  • "I'd just like to take this time to brag on Nicole, as one of our vendors didn't have photos of each fabric on their handmade chairs. She was able to photoshop the fabrics on to create renderings to use for our listings, and the vendor loved them so much that they asked if they could use them... in exchange for the images, they gave us the materials to start up a swatch program to better sell their chairs (we were asking for these for the last eight months to no avail — these images made it happen)."
