“Darcy is an absolutely wonderful designer, she’s as organized and passionate as anyone I know. There are two types of creatives in this world: the ones that care and the ones that don’t. No one cares more than Darcy.”

— Stefan Mumaw, Creative Director at First Person

“I worked as Darcy's manager at Cabela's in the Digital Design Team from 2009 to 2013. She played a vital role as a web designer during the huge growth in our department at the time we were redesigning the company ecomm website. Darcy is naturally out-going and inquisitive inspiring our team. She lives and breathes design in her day-to-day work and in her involvement in HOW Conferences. I highly recommend Darcy. Along with her passion and experience in digital design, she is very responsible and communicative. If you need a strong and cohesive team, Darcy will help make that happen.”

—Patrick Flood, Digital Designer

“I can honestly say I’ve learned more about design and design thinking from Darcy than I have from anyone else I have worked with. She is always there to push every member of the team and has heightened all of our work in some way or another. Darcys infectious enthusiasm is a welcomed addition to any team. She manages to keep a smile on her face through the toughest jobs and the tightest deadlines. She has been a true pleasure to work with over the years.”

—Will Consiglio, Web Designer at Garmin International

“If you take time to get to know Darcy, you will quickly know that her creativity is a natural gift. Her face lights up when she is talking about a new idea or concept. Throughout my time at Cabela's, Darcy has always been helpful and easy to work with. She is able to take verbal descriptions, and at times little to no description, of what the desired visual is, and create amazing content.”

— Liz Duggan, Brand Partnerships, Program Manager at Cabela’s & Bass Pro Shops

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Darcy for the past two years at Cabela’s. Darcy is a very hard-working, passionate, enthusiastic colleague that would be a great addition to any company. Within the Design Team she is the email subject matter expert for my team (Email Marketing) so she and I work close on a variety of projects and she always strives to push the envelope and make the end product better. She goes above and beyond with all projects and her design work is flawless. The office I work out of is in a separate office (and city, state) than Darcy is located; although we are in two separate locations it doesn’t affect the collaboration and communication or her hard work and dedication to my team. She’s a wonderful person and always willing to help out and go the extra mile; any company would be lucky to have Darcy on their team.”

— Carrie Dyer, Email Marketing Manager at BioTrust Nutrition

“If you are looking for someone who is hell-bent on optimizing creative, Darcy is a great fit. She was never comfortable with maintaining the status quo. Rather, she constantly took what worked and tweaked it in order to reach business goals. Any team would be lucky to have her on it.”

— David Meade, Head of Lifecycle & Product Marketing, Sling TV

“Darcy is one of the most creative, driven and innovative people I've had the pleasure to work with. She not only has a ton of energy for self-improvement, but she always looks to help the team members around her. She keeps in touch with industry experts, and brings that expertise back into the organization. Darcy is absolutely an asset to the team!”

— Lee Dolan, Business Owner at Motobreck

“Darcy has been attending HOW Design Live for quite a few years now. She has always been very active on our forums and Facebook page. She is a huge supporter of not only HDL, but of the entire graphic design community. She has a passion to learn, educate, network and grow like no one else I've ever met. Last month in Boston we asked Darcy to act as an honorary staff person to help us introduce speakers and overall help around the event. She gladly accepted and went above and beyond to make sure the speaker was comfortable and had all that they needed for a successful session. She made a point of asking if there was any more that she could do to help the staff. It was a pleasure having her on board!”

— Heather Griffin, Event Director at Northstar Travel Group

“Creative is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Darcy. I worked with Darcy when I built our internal corporate university. Her knowledge of the use of design, color, and textures to make the site youthful and easy to navigate helped us make it one-of-kind. And her ability to articulate the value of various design aspects made it easy to understand and buy in to her concepts. Anyone would be lucky to have Darcy as part of their design team.”

— Christie Hernandez, Talent Development Professional/Leadership Development/Expert in Learning & Development

“What an extraordinary opportunity it was to let Darcy loose on the "Con Survival Kit". She researched info from a creative brief, added dimension and enthusiasm to the creative process, was fun to collaborate with and did a fantastic job illustrating the concept. Darcy is creative, passionate and talented - a great friend and valuable asset to the creative industry.”

— Kelly Parke, Graphic Designer | Print, Web, Motion
