To say Ema is an impressive genius is an understatement. Intuitive right from the start, I'm ready for anything when she's my call-a-friend option and everybody needs Ema in their life. Give her a few minutes and she'll be ahead of you before you even finish sharing your ideas, and it will be amazing. I run a few creative companies, and she's strategic in all of them which is an advantage for us every single day. Ema is our secret weapon and I wouldn't have it any other way. :)

Ema is a delight. Cheerful company, agreeably priced, quick to respond to messages, and full of ideas yet more than willing to collaborate. I would hire her again in a nanosecond. In fact, I plan on doing exactly that.
P.B.
Ema set up my quite complicated website for a reasonable rate resulting in great quality. Her sense of design and color is excellent and the layout is easy and accessible. I highly recommend her.
B.P.
What do I think about the service provided by Ema? STELLAR. The cover & interior she designed for my limited edition book, "Cat Stories" perfectly complimented the tone and spirit of the pages within. The way she was able to break down the different stanzas, beats, and rhythm of the poems paired with illustrations for the layout was spot on and sensitive to creating a reading experience that matched the way the poems were written and performed. No small feat. Will hire again!

One of the top people I have ever worked with in any professional community, period. High-quality work in a timely manner, grace under pressure, and creative flow while still an avid businessperson... are just some qualities I have found in Ema. Highly recommended? Hell yes, you won't regret it.

Ema was great!! I'm very happy with her work and her service. A pleasure to work with and sooooo creative, she knows how to create beauty and great art! highly recommend her!!
E.G.
Great experience with Ema! Totally on the ball and fast.
Best of all, she made videos of her process so I could understand what was happening to my website and manage it myself.
J.P.
The process of figuring out a logo for our new website was tough. There were a lot different ideas on our side, but Ema was really good at listening and responding to all the changes we thought we needed.
M.M.
Ema is awesome! Highly recommend her for web design and all graphics needs!

Ema is a rock star! She completely redesigned our very out of date and problematic Wordpress site on a new platform, adding functionality we'd only dreamed of before. Not only is the new site gorgeous, it loads lightning fast, and sales are through the roof. Just a top notch designer who cares as much about our business as we do.
