You can trust others’ impressions of me“She is curious in a way that is contagious and rigorous. She doesn't just want to know the answer; she wants to understand the landscape, the context, and what comes next. Her instinct to ask the right questions, to seek out perspectives she doesn't already have, and to synthesize across sources and stakeholders is something most professionals spend years developing.”
– Jason Autry, UHP Director of Honors Admissions and Marketing

“Ellie is already asking so many great questions that are far beyond so many beginner designers. Her natural curiosity and genuine empathy for users will be huge in her inevitable success.” – Alex Hiser, Senior UX Designer at Openfield
