"Marissa is one of my all-time favorite mentors and a great leader. As a Director of Design, Marissa launched several initiatives with a very well organized plan. She brought a strong work ethic, drive, and knowledge with consistent smiles and cheerful demeanor."

 — Prachi Gautam, Sr. Product Designer at Expedia

"Marissa has a true creative gift at UI Art Direction. She stood out as a sharp thinker who very carefully crafts the user experience. She has a rare ability to design visually arresting user experiences that focus on delighting and inspiring users in a clean, user-friendly way."

— Nguyen-Cat Le, Sr. Designer at Apple

"As a director and manager, she is skilled at supporting her team, and in empathetically managing the varying viewpoints that come from collaboration. You can tell that Marissa is authentic and ethical in her actions and in her words. She not only adds value but has values."

— Paula Croxon, Sr. Content Designer at Expedia

"Marissa is incredibly dynamic and self-driven. An early stage startup is a fast paced and chaotic environment and she repeatedly went above and beyond her job description. Marissa's design work is evident throughout the Ness app and I would definitely work with her again."

— Paul Twohey, CTO and Co-founder at Ness (acquired by OpenTable)

"Marissa's work is phenomenal. She has excellent design taste and judgment, but also very strong as a storyteller and a communicator. Her contributions made a night and day difference not just in appearance but also in narrative."

— Blake Scholl, CEO and Co-founder at Boom Technology (YC W16)

"Our design team has made an effort to learn from Marissa Louie. We set up more design workshops that include engineering and our CEO, but we’ve definitely still got a way to go in sharing our skills and working more closely with data and analytics."

— Pauline Wee, Product Designer at Swarm and Dashlabs.ai (YC W21)
