I worked with Bianca on a high profile project at Vaimo. She effortlessly and systematically took charge of a team of designers to deliver a complex, multi-channel approach and redesign. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Adam Fulford 

I had the pleasure of working with Bianca on a number of occasions within DD over the years. She was always approachable, sincere and open to new ideas. Whenever I’d collaborate with her and her team, it was a joy to observe how she enabled them to try out new endeavours within Deloitte to strengthen and enhance their skills. And they are all excellent multidisciplinary designers.

Also being very open to my suggestions on newer ideas for the Black & Digital communities rebrand and events that she led – which are the qualities of a good leader.
