“Shivani was an outstanding team player. She was always willing to jump in and work hard on whatever digital project was needed - all with a positive attitude. She also helped with competitive analysis and A | B testing. She is truly a great addition to any team!”

Hannah Coffman,

“Shivani joined our tiny, remote team and was able to hit the ground running. She's endlessly talented, a quick learner and great collaborator. Being a newcomer to the team, I was excited to see how she interpreted our brand guide and pushed it, creating a look for our creative that we're now able to implement across our channels. She was excited to own the redesign of our social content and came to the table with ideas beyond just her immediate deliverables. It was such a pleasure to have her be a part of our team!”

Anastasia Kuznetsova,
Co-Founder & Creative Director of Made of Millions
