WHAT'S THE WORD ON THE STREET ABOUT ME? 👀

Take a look at what my former managers and coworkers have to say, they can give you a better idea of what you can expect when you work with your gal 🙋‍♀️

"Chela is such a talented designer. She is extremely organized, proactive, and determined when it comes to solving design problems. Her clarity, responsiveness and friendly demeanor make her an amazing collaborator. I love working with her, as I always learn so much from her strong processes and incredible UI design skills.

She’s a champion of accessibility in our platform, which has been a huge undertaking. Chela brings enthusiasm and delight to our team’s culture as well, and makes virtual meetings so much more fun!

Product Designer at Unqork

"It's such a freakin pleasure working with Chela's designs, mockups, and docs. Everything she touches gets very organized and concise, making it super rad for Devs and PMs to work with.

She works great across multiple teams, managing several tasks in an efficient order. If I could, I would pick her to be the designer on any team I'm working with. Chela is just the best!"

👉🏼 Travis Hubbard

Staff Engineer at Unqork

"Chela is an exceptional UX and UI professional, she is excellent in front of an executive team and working on high-level product direction, but also great hands-on, and everything in between.

She is truly a one-of-a-kind user experience leader–one with a great deal of knowledge, who empowers her team on the daily.

As a PM I have had the pleasure of working with Chela on multiple projects (such as FOLEY, PATH, etc) and her professionalism and kind heart never seems to fade - My full-hearted recommendation goes to anyone lucky enough to have Chela on their team."

👉🏼 Olivia Linder

Senior Technical Project Manager at Reflexions

"In her last year with the Charles Butt Foundation, Chela set up our organization for success by creating a design system that informed and drove the overall look and feel for our organization’s website.

Additionally, she helped lead an effort to better understand our audience and user behaviors by doing extensive research on how users interacted with our previous website and low-fidelity prototypes. Using the methodology of contextual inquiry with actual users, we were able to pinpoint key issues found on the previous site and formulate practical solutions for the new site. The new site launch was an absolute success, and we could not have done it without Chela’s leadership and support."

👉🏼 Joel Goudeau

Art Director at the Charles Butt Foundation

"Chela and I collaborated together on numerous UI/UX projects, and I admire her thought-leadership and creativity. Her energy, work ethic, and tenacity helped to make our team a powerhouse of exuberant creativity.

When she's not saving our group from a last-minute assignment, Chela embraces the challenge of learning all there is to know about process, prototyping, and producing engaging designs. She is a delight to work with and is a great asset for any team."

👉🏼 Karen Wang

Lead Web Developer at the Charles Butt Foundation

"Marcela is the magic key. She always knows what to do even if the worst scenario comes around. She and her great skills as a designer help solve any issue she is in charge of.

You won’t regret it if you hire her. She is always finding new creative ways to improve the process in any field she develops at"

👉🏼 Sergio Gutierrez

"Marcela is the Swiss Army Knife every design team craves! She has a very strong knowledge of design trends and how to implement them. Adept at ideation and research, though always ahead of schedule when it comes time for delivery."
