  • Katerina worked with me in 2021 as a student intern on an internally funded research project focused on tackling digital exclusion at LJMU during the Covid -19 pandemic. Throughout the project, Katerina was reliable, responsible, hardworking, organised and methodical. She was an excellent team player, contributed playful and novel ideas, and approached design elements with creative flair. Katerina was a pleasure to work with and based on her involvement in the project, I would highly recommend her for any creative graphic design and illustration team.

  • Myself and Katerina worked together on the design and development of Storyhouse's Chester Literature Festival Programme and Inside Story Newspaper. Katerina was quick, efficient, grasped the brief immediately, and delivered considered and creative designs for both publications. I would happily recommend her and look forward to work with her whenever the opportunity arises again in the future.
