THANK YOU for all the work you are doing to support the entire growth team, from prospecting postcards, website mapping & dev updates, building a new sales portal, and so much more!
– Laura Etches, VP of Marketing
Heidi, thank you for being such a fantastic partner across the entire website project! You did so much — from advising on design, to attending development meetings, to UAT, to seamlessly getting all of the content assets organized and delivered. And, on top of that you were consistently two steps ahead with thoughtful feedback and quick change edits. We could not have done it without you!
– Hallie Steele, Director of Marketing
Heidi, thank you for always showing kindness and being so on top of my many design needs for social (as well as all the other website, video, etc. content!) I admire your ability to ask great questions, provide creative solutions, and always being willing to collaborate with me on new ideas. You are truly a design wizard in that you make my copy come to life 🪄 and all of us Nerds greatly appreciate your talents and hard work!
– Courtney Stucker, Social Media Coordinator
If you worked with this gem of a nerd once, there’s no doubt that she made your job not only easier, but you actually learned something as well.
In the past four years, Heidi has been a great video/photo partner to me and without her existence, my career wouldn’t be where it is today.
