Brad Cundiff

President / Green Living Communications

“”What I want her other clients to know about Sherri is that she is a real thinker who makes sure to fully understand the challenge and then expresses creative solutions in rock-sold design (not trendy or cute, but effective and elegant). There’s a million “can do nice” designers out there. Sherri stands out from the pack thanks to her analytical skills.”

Anita Lo

Senior Advisor, Communications & Marketing / The Michener Institute for Applied Health Sciences

"Finding a graphic designer who can seamlessly grasp corporate branding with minimal art direction and edits is rare, but Sherri is the secret weapon for any in-house designer/communications professional tasked with outsourcing projects on a tight time frame! My experience working with Sherri was excellent. She did her research in advance and came prepared with questions and suggestions at every meeting, reassuring me that the annual report was in good hands. Not only is Sherri creative, but she also is a critical thinker who has a knack for suggesting ways to better organize copy in a meaningful way.”

William Humber

Director, Office of Eco-Seneca initiatives / Seneca College

“Sherri provided outstanding conceptual input and, it goes without saying, marvelous graphic design for the challenge facing Seneca College in developing a learning resource for its Green Citizen Campaign. She met multiple times with myself, with students, and with those in the wider environmental community to ensure the stories toldl. Sherri went far beyond my initial expectations –the result is a project that will capture student and staff attention within the College and beyond. Do yourself a favour and meet with, challenge, and finally, engage Sherri in your creative process. It is resulting in extraordinary success for Seneca College.”

Jane Craig

Executive Director / New Circles

"When we first spoke with Sherri about redesigning our web site, we didn’t have a clear idea of what we needed but we knew what we didn’t like about our existing site – almost everything. Sherri explained the benefits of creating a Wordpress site that we would be able to update ourselves. She then organized our content in a logical manner and put it all together with a modern new look. Sherri’s professionalism throughout this process was impeccable. Without hesitation, I recommend Sherri to you!”

Tim Progosh

“Sherri was able to deliver a fantastic design and concept for the 11th Canadian Comedy Awards and Festival – on time and on budget! It was just what we needed and gave our whole organization a new start!”

“Sherri is a highly skilled, creative designer. She works well with a variety of people in varying postions and as a result is able to provide designs that are responsive and reflect the personality of the client organization. I couldn’t be happier with the brand re-design Sherri did for Ernestine’s Women’s Shelter. Sherri was a consumate professional every step of the way and her results were amazing. We are getting so much positve feedback on our new look that everyone is feeling so energized. We have hired Sherri to design other campaign pieces and our annual report for 2012.”

Kathleen Cooper

Ananya Ohri

Executive Director / Regent Park Film Festival

“Regent Park Film Festival was entering our tenth anniversary year. The time was right to overhaul our festival brand, and we needed a designer who would understand what our unique festival is all about. Sherri took the time to gain an in-depth understanding of our social, educational, as well as artistic mandate, led a fantastic brainstorming session with a cross-section of Festival stakeholders, and conducted a thorough review of our Toronto film festival environment before even beginning to work on design. Sherri’s creative presentation, which included a new tagline as well as graphic design concepts, was well-thought out, and the end-product is brilliant. Her design work has provided the Regent Park Film Festival with not just a new look, but a series of valuable communication tools, from our new website to our festival poster, program, and advertising. Sherri is also great to work with, frequently goes beyond what is expected, and her commitment to her projects is admirable. I very highly recommend her!”

Elaine Wong

Manager, Community Engagement / Ernestine’s Women’s Shelter

“Sherri can distill hours of discussion, ideas, and messages into a concise graphic or design that is not only spot on, but expresses all we want to convey even more clearly than we can imagine. This makes our job of in community engagement and reaching our donors much easier and more effective – simply because people love and are responding (the way we want!) to her work! She has the most genuine love for design . Everything she produces is done with the utmost care and thought. We know we can depend on Sherri to expertly translate our communication goals into any print or web design.”

"When we hired Sherri to design our 2012 Impact Report, we challenged her to present our story in a compelling way – and we could not be more pleased with the result. From re-imagining many of our service icons to creating specific info-graphics that enhance our research data, the design of our 2012 Impact Report is clear, elegant, and inspiring. Sherri contributed many ideas along the way – helping us create the best report possible, often going above and beyond what was expected. As a national organization, her fluency in French was a great asset for us. Sherri is passionate, committed to her profession and a pleasure to work with.”
