TESTIMONIALS
Lauren Kennelly
Manifest Group
Francesca is an absolute gem. Not only is she a brilliant designer and illustrator, but she’s also super organised, proactive, and genuinely lovely to work with – the kind of person who instantly clicks with the team. We’ve worked with her across both FTC and freelance projects, mainly brand and social design, and she’s always brought creativity, clarity, and a great sense of humour. Loved her retainer-style approach to freelance too – it gave us loads of flexibility and made working together feel seamless. Can’t recommend her enough.

Francesca has great at understanding brand guidelines, but still be wildly creative within those guidelines. She's an efficient communicator and fast to complete tasks. It has been an absolute pleasure working with her for the past 6 months. I hope we can collaborate again on future projects.

Francesca has an incredible attitude and work ethic - it was a pleasure to have her on the Brading & Design team at Manifest. She has a keen eye for detail and her enthusiasm when approaching any type of project is to be admired. We can't wait to get her back in!
Craig Ritchie
Uncommon Creative Studio
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Francesca on a great variety of creative design projects for British Airways during my time at Uncommon. Francesca has an infectious can-do attitude and her commitment to making quality work is impressive. Her ability to transcend design jargon and take everyone along on the journey is a dream too, regardless of whether her audience is design-literate or not. A master of her craft.

Francesca was a joy to work with on our last branding project. Her ability to grasp the challenge and effectively translate the creative direction into a dynamic and engaging identity system was impressive. She is highly recommended for anyone seeking a lively and versatile creative professional.

Checka is a prodigious talent: with an awesome drawing, painting and illustration background she has extended her natural capabilities to great effect. Spanning many commercial and artistic fields, physical and digital, her great visualisation abilities and imagination are a fantastic asset when she works with our creative team. She is a natural empathiser and fits in easily and confidently with team members and clients alike.

I had the pleasure of working with Francesca on several projects and am continually impressed by her creativity and professionalism. She’s an organized and versatile designer who can translate concepts into stunning visuals and engaging motion design. Her attention to detail and commitment to high-quality work are exceptional. Francesca is also a great team player, always open to feedback and collaboration. I highly recommend her for any graphic design needs.
Ian Douglass
Ivory Worldwide
Francesca was a real asset to the team for the 3 years we worked together at Ivory. Her creativity, and the ability to apply it to various different mediums (3D, graphics, illustration) was invaluable. She has a real thirst for learning, and I would recommend her to anyone needing an enthusiastic, adaptable creative.
