“Ridiculously talented and extremely professional” is the phrase that I think of when it comes to Barb. I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with her over the last year through our work at The Franklin Institute. She single-handedly came up with a design that completely refreshed the look of the Philadelphia Science Festival and found a seamless way to integrate the brand of The Franklin Institute at the same time. Her work is exceptional and she is a delight to work with. I can’t recommend her more highly for any design job!”
