I had a valuable and fun conversation with Femke about the next steps in my UX career. She was so kind to listen to my concerns and perspective. She is a super thoughtful designer that really cares about other designers and wants to be helpful. It felt like design therapy and I am all here for it.

Femke really demystified the art of influencing as a UX Designer with helpful tips and tricks I can start implementing into my team immediately. I loved the MVP -> MLP conversation since "Loved" is a huge word at Southwest Airlines.

Quick Walkthrough
Our team at Fellowers absolutely loved working with Femke and her amazing team on a series of Reraft collaborations. They were kind, quick, and incredibly professional throughout the process.
Diana Tseva, Influencer Marketing Manager
Working with Femke and her team was an absolute pleasure. They brought Chronicle to life across Twitter, Instagram, and their newsletter in a way that felt authentic and deeply resonant with their audience. The results spoke for themselves: strong engagement on social, hundreds of high-intent clicks from their newsletter, and meaningful visibility for our brand.
