— Alina Sack, Founder | ErgoPouch
I first worked with Mary when I was looking for help with a range of design projects for a retail company. Visual design was critical for us as we needed engaging visuals that would stand out on crowded social media platforms. I enjoyed working with Mary so much - the quality of her work and the great service I received - that I contacted her again and continued to work with her in my next role. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mary again in future.
