“Eileen has the superpower of taking your ideas, producing a variety of prototypes that you can iterate on quickly, and finalize a design that you can be excited about. She excels at creating mock-ups, providing guidance, and working independently. We developed an aquarium app that drew customers in with unique and cute characters without ever needing to meet in person. Eileen is an incredible artist that I look forward to working with again!”
Christophe L, Fun Fish (Mobile Game)
“I met Eileen and hired her as an artist on my game project titled Haru – Master of Shadows. She was the only artist on the project and created every asset in the game, which was 2d characters, animation, props, and scenery. It was a true pleasure to work with Eileen. She was a professional in every sense of the word. Not only was the quality superb, but when there would be technical issues related to art, and it was explained, she quickly would understand what needed to happen and make the fixes quickly. She was communicative, always delivered on time, even early often, and at excellent quality. I would love to work with Eileen again anytime!”
