Testimonials

Laurel Schwulst — Designer & Lecturer at Princeton
"Tiana was a guest lecturer in my class at Princeton this past spring. The class is called 'Graphic Design: Link' and essentially about making your own simple websites and the importance of carving out your own place on the world wide web as an independent publisher. Tiana came up with a both novel and important topic: making your own personal map of the internet. She led students in a calm and exploratory workshop of making their own maps. For this lecture & workshop, she prepared well in advance, sharing with me drafts, so that we could together tailor the experience best to the needs of my students. Tiana is inventive & collaborative, and with a great and curious knowledge of the web, helping people feel comfortable and exploratory together."

Laura Amadi — Co-Founder & CEO at OTOblocs Inc.
"Tiana showcased high-level photography and video production skills while collaborating with me to produce a product promo video and photos for my company's product launch. She really owned her role and responsibilities and added a great deal of value to the launch. I appreciated the attention to detail, consistency, and enthusiasm that was executed! I would recommend Tiana to anyone who's looking for a filmmaker or photographer and I hope to work with Tiana again in the future."

Lynne — Fashion Designer
"I had the pleasure of working with Tiana for my BA20 lookbook where she was both the photographer and videographer. She is incredibly talented with a great aptitude for taking direction as well as delivering polished and professional results in a timely manner. Would highly recommend for future projects!"

Mike MacDonald — Operations Manager at Leeber Ltd.
