“I've learned so much about the UX process from Nora, and have been fortunate to see how she can enhance systems with both fun and functionality. She is very open to suggestions, willing to give her point of view, and provide facts to her reasoning. Her work helped shape our project for the better and those systems have built a foundation for greater unity across departments.”
- Rebecca Brooker,Lead Designer, Gameloft
“To say we are thrilled by the final product would be an understatement. Our original concept now pales beside what Nora completed. The website is colourful, dynamic, informative, and easy to navigate. Thank you for your professionalism, patience and proficiency. It was a pleasure working with you.”
- Henry Clarke, CD, Lieutenant-Colonel,

“Nora has an eye for aesthetics, but also brings a sense of purpose to the table in design and usability discussions. She has a knack for identifying what's important for users and knows how to create an order of operations that makes your product, game, or platform easy to use and understand. She is your audience's champion at the round table discussion, and an asset to any team she's on.”
