I had a wonderful time working with Joy on this project. I liked that she took the time to understand our skill level and assign us with tasks that we were comfortable completing. But, she also trusted our work ethic and let us jump right into the work which was challenging but rewarding.

I got to work with Joy Curth on a project for her company, El Locale. Overall the experience was positive. She was open to new ideas that the team had and was great to work with when it came to designing new screens for her company. There were a bunch of positives but one area that could be improved is the communication with the company. At times, there was a lack of clarity around expectations and needs.
But overall, this was a great experience!
