“Aliena was an Incredible manager and teacher all through the duration of this project. Her design knowledge, expertise, and enthusiasm were a daily driver for the goals of this project. Her ability to manage a team of designers and how incredible she was at it made it an even better experience working on the project together. Aliena is both an outstanding designer and a great manager/design mentor. Her design course fills the gap for beginners, intermediate, and pro designers alike! I highly recommend the Fast Track UX Course and Aliena for her incredible managerial skills”
