What mentees say
“Kristine was very helpful in equipping with me with resources for the job hunt. I especially appreciated the detailed feedback and time she spent with me to go through my case study. The reframing of not just "what I did" but "why does it matter and what is the impact" was really helpful when she gave specific examples of how I could do that in my case study.”
“Kristine was amazing to talk to and learn about ways to tell a story through a portfolio. She has several different strategies to suggest on how we can highlighted important parts in a portfolio. She took the time to scan and read a portfolio to give feedback that really matters in the current market.”
“Kristine provided the rapid-fire feedback I was looking for to refine my design leadership portfolio. Her feedback was detailed and actionable. After our session, I walked away with a better sense of how to frame specific talking points that hiring managers look for in a design manager.”
