Peer Feedback
“Lili is a skilled, rigorous and delightful designer to work with. They not only execute on time and in budget, but consistently make work better through recommendations and personal initiative. A great mix of delivery and creativity that helps all projects become better.
“I highly recommend any chance to work with Lili!”
“I worked wtih Lili during their time at Gensler on the Digital Experience Design team. Not only is Lili highly gifted at their craft, but they lead with integrity, sensitivity, and lived-experience that immersive design requires. Their ability to tie physical design with digital integration was key to our success as a team, and I knew that whenever I saw Lili on a project, it would be delivered with the utmost quality and attention to detail. Lili was also our in-house expert on design sustainability – bringing a wealth of value and critical thinking to the table.
“I would not hesitate to work with Lili again; they belong in leadership of courageous design groups.”
“Over the past two years of our working relationship at Gensler, Lili has been a trusted partner, a close friend, and a visionary.
“They have an unwavering internal compass, an incisive wit, and proven organizational management skills. Their passion and attention to detail contributed to our team’s success in countless ways, balancing a “three-legged stool” of leadership between Lili, myself, and our co-lead Jake. I emphatically recommend Lili for senior level roles related to experiential design and technology.”
