The 9-month transformation
Through my journey, Femke assisted me with unpacking various topics. We dived into subjects like effective processes, personal development ideas and expectations to consider as my team expands. Femke's insight has given me incredible direction to understand how I can play a part in building a positive environment for future Product Designers in my company.

Design lead, educator, and mentor — I've spent my career building products and helping designers develop the strategic skills that drive real career advancement.
What I've learned: the designers who advance fastest aren't always the most talented. They're the ones who pair craft with strategic thinking, business fluency, and the ability to build influence across an organization.

Femke was great! She let me tell my story. Listened to me. Understood what my goals were and how I thought best to get there. Then she offered valuable advice which helped me eliminate extra things I thought I needed to do to reach my goals.
