Meghan is an exceptional Visual + Interactive Designer who blends creativity with a user-centered mindset. At Vernier, she was instrumental in our brand refresh and produced everything from interactive web pages to custom event artwork—all with consistency and impact.
What stood out most to me was Meghan’s reliability. For example, while I was at a national conference, she provided real-time support for our website, ensuring everything ran smoothly without a hitch. That level of dedication and collaboration made a huge difference.
During her tenure on the Vernier Science Education design team, Meghan played a key role in projects supporting our new brand guidelines and elevating our brand presence, including building web assets, applying updates to our catalogs, or designing giveaways for tradeshows.
Beyond her technical strengths, she contributes positively to a motivating team environment. She is an asset to any team—not only for the quality of her design work but also for the positive energy and collaboration she brings to every project.
Meghan was an invaluable member of both the PDXWIT (Portland Women in Technology) design and photography volunteer teams. She did a wonderful job illustrating the PDXWIT brand and vision in her work. She has created graphics, logos, advertisements, and a brand guide for our organization.
Meghan always jumped on each project with enthusiasm and zeal - she's a pleasure to work with!
Meghan is amazing both creatively and technically. A trained graphic designer who has gone above and beyond in the technical-side of website development and branding. She provided me an excellent consulting website in the medical device field that reflects my personal and professional achievements. She is personable, is the the voice of the customer and is artistically and technically gifted. She has worked for Fortune 500 companies, start-ups, tech sector darlings and individuals like me to help build my brand and clientele.
Meghan designed a portfolio site for me to showcase some of my web development projects. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about design and using the Adobe Creative suite, she patiently listened to my needs and translated them into a clean, elegant design.
Her professionalism and passion for creating beautiful things has not only produced an amazing product for myself, it has also inspired me to learn more about different design practices.
