[Emily] will help designers who are transitioning into positions where they are expected to bring in new work. Business Development skills aren’t always innate, and [Emily] offers helpful strategies to designers who have focused mostly on design in their careers and not so much on strategic relationship building.

  • Emily played an important role in shaping our early business development foundation. Through thoughtful conversations, she helped us clarify our purpose, values, and how we want to show up as a firm. Her approach encouraged honest reflection and show us how vulnerability can strengthen a business development strategy that feels both authentic and actionable. As a result, we gained clarity, confidence, and a strong framework to support our next phase of growth. She is a valuable resource for design professionals navigating business development with intention.
