You defined the culture of m360 and turned m360 from an idea into National Grid's PREMIER product!
Christian, National Grid
Product Lead
As a manager on the ACA Group engagement, Emily has continued to prove her ability to facilitate product design with the client. Emily does an amazing job at assuring that the team is continuing to move forward and stay on track, even in difficult environments. Emily has a strong creative design thinking process that pushes me to think outside the box and pull inspiration from sources that initially aren't at the top of my mind.

Emily is exceptional at work quality. She goes above and beyond her role as creative lead to support key project management activities within budget. I heard numerous times from our key stakeholder that since joining Allina, Emily had done a tremendous amount of work to build trust with the rest of the product team and drive greater collaboration.

Emily has fearlessly met the challenge of taking over the design leadership on this National Grid work. She dove head-first into a new industry domain with confusing and sometimes contradictory concepts and terminology and complex role relationships. She was able to provide meaningful contributions in our client kick off workshops.
