Vanessa is an amazing designer, super curious, bold, and full of initiative. I watched her speak at an AWS Community Day event hosted by Amazon in Malta, where she stood out as the only designer on stage, confidently bridging design, technology, and innovation. Her talk on AI and Design showed how artificial intelligence can expand creativity and boost productivity, making complex ideas feel approachable and inspiring.
