"Tat is unquestionably the most broadly gifted designer I've ever worked with. She is an exceptionally gifted systems thinker with a deeply commercial and practical approach to prioritization and iteration. Tat supported Chord through an entire website rebuild, resulting in immediate and measurable impact to our sales pipeline. She brings a critical eye and golden touch to improving artifacts as wide ranging as investor slide decks to onboarding campaigns to complex user flows within our app. Tat knows how to do A LOT with a little without compromising timelines or quality. She's an expert technologist and applies innovative tools and solutions in deeply practical ways to accelerate work and improve outcomes. Tat thinks AI-first and is an expert AI practitioner, but she never introduces it to creation or UX flows without ensuring it delivers more value than was possible without it.

Tat is a design and development powerhouse whose growth mindset, sparkling intelligence, magnetic humor, and top-tier communication and collaboration skills make her a gem any team or client would be *lucky* to partner with."

"Tat is an incredible and very skilled designer, and her work ethic is unmatched. She has a passion for excellence and for creating amazing experiences for customers. She has a brilliant and innovative way of thinking. She is not only a visionary, but has a unique ability to break out extremely complex work in way that others can easily understand it. Tat is a natural thought-leader and will quickly become an MVP on any team. I highly recommend her to any company who needs an innovative and highly skilled design leader."

"Tatiana is an absolute rockstar who inspired me to think bigger about the technology she was developing every single time we met. She is one of those unicorns who can understand customer and business needs, as well well as the potential in the technology she's working on, to bring something amazing to life. If you have the opportunity to work with her I guarantee you'll be impressed."

"I began bootstrapping my startup Sawa in late 2015, and hired Tat at the end of 2016 just as we were beginning our serious build of the product. In 2017 we collected our first paying customers, were accepted to Ocean Accelerator in Cincinnati, then Techstars Atlanta, then finally acquired by Mailchimp in February 2019. We successfully integrated with Mailchimp in 2020 rebrand Creative Assistant. Intuit acquired Mailchimp November 2021, and we believe as Mailchimp's first modern acquisition we had a small part to play in the value that Intuit saw.

If I am the father of Sawa, then Tatiana would undoubtably be its mother. No other person has had a larger or more critical impact on our success. It is difficult to put Tatiana into a traditional job title box. Is she a graphic designer? UI/UX designer? Industrial and systems designer? Engineer? Inventor? Entrepreneur? Intrepreneur? Experienced agency creative? Product Manager? Project Manager? Data Science Integrator? Prototype and pitch specialist?

The honest answer is yes, all of the above. In short, Tatiana invents delightful solutions to complex problems.

Her solutions are always flexible, automated, intelligent, and scalable -- and she does whatever needs doing to drive it not just to completion but to customer satisfaction. In a world where salaries and benefits alone do not make a great product team, Tat's passion and her internal engine of innovation sparks that culture wherever she goes. Grateful to have had her as my right hand for 5 years."

"Tatiana is one of the most versatile and valuable partners I've worked with. She does many roles well and is proactive and creative in her solutions and contributions. She has a keen eye for how to use data science for design - over 2.5 years she worked closely with my team of data scientists to build new features start to finish, from the idea generation to the model evaluation and fine tuning, to monitoring and measurement of the user experience. Tat is a gem and if you get the chance to hire her, you should!"

"Tat is a person, that you want to have on the team if it's setting off for building a successful Product.

She has a talent for tuning into the Why and learning the customer's Problem and then an enormous capacity for working toward the solution until it’s built.

Above all Tat is a talented Designer, and all things she creates are exclusively beautiful from visual designs to user experiences, to systems, ideas, decks and boards, and charts. Tat is very entrepreneurial and she’s a natural thought leader. For the 7 years that we worked together with Tat on the same team, I’ve seen her wearing different hats and solutioning for very different phases from early idea drafts when we first joined Sawa startup to complex integration challenges when it was acquired by Mailchimp.

Tat is a great communicator, no matter the size of the team she would always be successful in rallying people around the right problem and working out the solution, as a team."
