“If I could have hired her, I would have. Ringae has the poise and presence of mind to handle senior-level client interactions, as well as the UX chops to get down and dirty with complex wireframes. I would feel comfortable, and you should too, having her lead any major UX-driven engagement, knowing that she will not only solve the problem, but build a great working relationship with her teammates along the way.”
Alder Yarrow
Chief Experience Officer, Cibo
"Ringae was a critical early hire for Varo, taking us from early concepts to our App Store launch. The moment she joined, she rolled up her sleeves, won the trust of her team, and tackled her role with dedication. She is both hands-on and big picture, and this allows her her to use design not just to make things look great but to solve problems and bring the value proposition to life.

As Head of Design, Ringae facilitated an important executive Design Sprint that focused the company in the right direction at a pivotal moment. She knew what to do when and how to best approach it, collaborating effectively with colleagues across the company. Ringae is a real asset."

CEO & Co-founder, Varo Money
"Ringae is an outstanding, talented creative. At INQ, she played an integral role in thinking through how to integrate social throughout the INQ1 phone. This work required comprehensive and original thinking about the device’s entire UI, since that product was one of the very first to pursue this kind of integration.

I was impressed how Ringae was able to innovate on this project, while encouraging and supporting collaboration. She genuinely cared about the work - not just the 'what' but the 'why' behind it. She works fast, produces great results, and does not shy away from rolling up her sleeves and getting her hands dirty. A really talented, creative, team player."
Frank Meehan
Co-founder & CEO, Inq Mobile
“Ringae led up our UX Design strategy for about 10 months in 2017-2018. She was responsible for all user research and all hands-on UX designs, identifying opportunities for improvement not just with usability but with user mental models: how do we understand and evolve the user’s preconceptions about our offering, how do we build trust in our solution, and on the whole, how do we make it more appealing to customers. She helped to fill out and deliver against a short- and medium-term product roadmap, with tangible results for our bottom line. While her remit was mostly focused on our iOS app, she noticed when our website was holding us back, and organized a one-week sprint with key stakeholders across the firm to design a far better one, which was implemented only two weeks later to great effect. She’s a clear thinker, a strong communicator, and an able Design leader. As a business owner, it is rare and difficult to find a partner in design who will challenge your decisions effectively to drive towards a better user experience, but at the same time, gracefully manage changes in direction as business priorities shift. She improved the work of those she collaborated with—both inside the design department and beyond—and she helped make our organization more user-centric. She would undoubtedly be an asset to any organization lucky enough to have her.”

Co-founder & COO, Topology Eyewear
“Ringae’s human-centered approach to design and her knowledge of design thinking was critical during our early product work. She led design workshops to help us discover consumer needs in our target market that align with technology capabilities and our business objectives. She oversaw testing and refinement of concepts through user research, ensuring a high-probability of product-market fit of our product. Ringae’s versatility is impressive - she consistently demonstrates the ability to think strategically in addition to providing tactical output. In all cases she can be relied upon for consistent, reliable and high-quality deliverables. It was a pleasure working with Ringae and I would welcome the opportunity to do so again in the future.”
Chris Craver
VP Product, Varo
“Ringae is a best-in-class product designer. Her breadth of knowledge and structured process ensures her design decisions are based on data, research and best practices, not just opinion. Ringae played a critical role in the redesign of Motif’s mobile native apps with a complete overhaul of the user experience and design. Being a self-starter and collaborative designer, she built comprehensive prototypes which she used to successfully test the product and walk the project through the development cycles and into production. I was very fortunate to have Ringae on the team and highly recommend her work.”
Simon Pearson
Director of UX & Design, Motif
“Ringae led the design of our mobile app, from the ground up. She was a fantastic design leader, taking us through a robust process from idea through implementation. Her approach and wisdom drove towards a strong product, challenged us where needed, and improved the design-orientation of our entire team.

We appreciated her comprehensive approach, as she brought together perspectives and incorporated outside voices through user research. She saw us through the initial release of our app and helped drive the next iterations based on user testing. Ringae played a critical role and delivered for our team.”
Justin Gavil
VP Product Management, Petabyte
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ringae both at 3 as a colleague and more recently at Betfair when Ringae joined my team as a Senior Interaction designer working on Betfair’s portfolio of mobile products leading UX improvements. I’d highly recommend Ringae for her design thinking lead approach combined with a great knowledge of mobile and ability to prioritise and deliver.

Ringae has the ideal combination of fluent creative thinking, a practical awareness of a project’s ‘big picture,’ she knows how to get the best out of senior stakeholders and explain to non-designers. I’d highly recommend Ringae and would eagerly work with her again.”
Julie Kennedy
Head of User Experience, Betfair
“She’s a talented and insightful designer who can distill the tough problems into robust and elegant solutions. She is comfortable with ambiguity and enjoys exploring and innovating but knows how and when to focus.”
Ken Johnstone
Chief Product Officer, Inq Mobile
“Ringae was a fantastic member of my team both in terms of work produced and the culture she helped create. As a manager I knew she could tackle a large unstructured problem and that she’d come back promptly with excellent, well-thought out solutions that were both creative and pragmatic. On top of that, she has real design craftsmanship and can see a concept through to execution, down to all the nitty-gritty details and small decisions that, done right, really make a project stand out and shine.”
Tony Price
Partner, Foster + Partners
“Ringae is an extremely talented and experienced UX designer. Ringae’s grounded common sense approach combined with expert insight makes her very effective at delivering intuitive user experiences. The project we worked on together had many moving parts, with product specifications changing throughout the process. Having Ringae on the team allowed us to maintain the usability of the product as we adapt to the new requirements. I’d recommend her highly and I hope to work with her again.”

She created a team environment that was collaborative, fun and supportive of learning and growth. Her leadership in both design and research enabled us to launch a product that is making an impact in its users’ lives.”

Ringae is a wonderful collaborator, and her calm and measured presence is a benefit to any team, large or small. Her ability to both generate and refine interesting directions & ideas is great to have around, and I thoroughly enjoyed working with her.”
