I’m a multidisciplinary creative and UC San Diego graduate. With a background in design and a deep love for storytelling, I strive to craft memorable experiences.
Outside of being an avid artist, designer, and writer, I love connecting with others and being outdoors.
Tessa brought a thoughtful, user-centered approach to her work, drawing on her own field research to redesign portions to focus on the real needs of our various audiences... making our website easier to navigate, more intuitive for users, and more representative of the heart of our organization.
Tessa is a thoughtful and strategic partner who has the ability to not only look at all facets of a problem to build a creative solution, but also has the diligence to follow through with the work and see a project to completion... her approach and work helped us as an organization better understand our offerings and any accessibility issues surrounding our services.
Tessa was still a college student, working alongside arts professionals much older and more experienced. Nonetheless, she listened closely and would try different approaches to respond to the feedback she received. She brought clear ideas to the work, but was open to exploring and iterating to find the best solution... She listened actively and supported others’ ideas. She was curious about others’ thoughts and asked genuine questions to further discussions. I am delighted to give her my strongest recommendation.
Tessa is not afraid of diverse experiences and meets them with grace, fortitude, humility, and self-confidence. She is resilient and optimistic. She is highly affable and works to understand policies, procedures, and cultural norms. She is an absolute delight to work with. She is also highly responsible and reliable, never missing a day in her field practicum.
As a Studio Art major and Literature-Writing minor at UC San Diego, Tessa has demonstrated exceptional dedication. Her dedication, commitment and technical abilities in both visual art and writing, makes her an ideal candidate.
