Theresa is wonderful. She is a very talented designer, supportive teammate, and strong cross-craft partner. I've seen multiple discussions where project scope/timelines have pushed towards a poor user experience and Theresa has acted as the voice of the user and steered the team back on track. Theresa is a valued member of the team and her leadership has always ensured Atlassian products are better.
I've been really impressed with the way you've leant in and got up to speed so quickly in a messy C&L space with lots of ambiguity. In a short time, you're already adding so much value and showing up as a design leader. You're even participating in wider x-functional conversations and thinking of ways we can improve things. Super keen to keep collaborating with you!
Huge THANK YOU to Theresa for all the hard work and relentless focus to ensure the requested Forums experiments from the business were launched as expected and delivered outcomes that exceeded planned performance goals! Thank you for ensuring the experiments moved forward, pressure-testing each experiment's functionality to ensure it operates as intended, and for being a great partner on this initiative!
Thank you for your incredible help with the Adoption Hub main page and navigation design! Your attention to detail and collaborative spirit were instrumental in getting us to the finish line of the original scope. I appreciate your dedication and for making such a positive impact on this project — we couldn't have done it without you!
Congrats and a massive thank you for all the work you did for the HLV migration. I know that it was a lot of work, and we truly couldn't have done it without you. Appreciate all the time and dedication you put into making this a success <3
The HLV migration was a HERCULEAN effort, thank you for being a goddess among women (and all humans) by contributing your time, your expertise, and your brilliance to help make it a success! I appreciate your work so much!!!!
…as we have descoped functionality to hit our timeline. Theresa has done a great job of keeping a lot of this documented…
@Theresa did a great job calling out the gap in that meeting but then it just sort of :poof: — glad we are aligned now
Thank you Marcus and Theresa for your quick turnaround with this work — really appreciate the effort and partnership.
Everyone, please welcome @Theresa to the ops party. As our lead (and now only 😢) designer, we agree it's critical to get her closer to the work this team is doing… If you haven't worked with her much, I have a feeling that's about to change 😇
Theresa, big thanks for the initial planning, defining lanes and guardrails. That was super valuable and served as the direct foundation for my draft.
It's incredible!! Thank you all so much for choosing this for your project and putting so much time and energy into it… where's the best place for me to give you all the kudos and call out how amazing this is?… Thanks so much Theresa!
Wow, amazing news! Huge congrats to the whole team! Shoutout to @Theresa @Marcus and @Gillian for the design side of things!
@Theresa and @Gillian for sharing at crit, and all the detailed work you're doing!
@Marcus @Theresa great work on your first Regional Design Review!
Wonderful write up @Theresa Garritano — You really captured the essence of the offsite. Excited for what the team will build and create.
