We recently worked with Cori to create graphic recordings of our summer solidarity series for organizers and movement folks. From our initial meeting and throughout the process, Cori was a joy to collaborate with. She helped us understand what kind of graphic notes would be most useful for our project, and guided us through the options, from providing a recording for internal use to creating shareable graphics appropriate for social media.
This was the first time we had piloted this series, and the first time our team had worked with a graphic recorder, and Cori helped us ensure that the process was smooth, from reviewing our session outlines before joining the live webinars, to precisely capturing the highlights, themes, and wisdom that arose from the series. It was great to work with someone like Cori who is familiar with social change movements and organizing, because she intuitively grasped the intricacies of our webinar focus areas, seamlessly weaving together insights on core areas of solidarity. We would work with Cori again in a heartbeat!

Cori was able to take ideas from the visioning session and turn them into exactly what I’d envisioned in my mind. She also has an excellent sense of humor and lightness in her work, which is something I strive to include in my own work. She’s great at receiving feedback and adapting the design. I was new to working with a graphic designer, and she was patient without being patronizing as I learned my way. Cori also kept us fairly on schedule and made sure we were meeting our milestones.

Springboard for the Arts – Program Manager of Professional Development
Cori brought talent, creativity, professionalism, and solutions-oriented thinking to her work on our organization’s annual report.
Her artwork is beautiful — she’s able to capture abstract concepts, like transformation and justice, along with realistic depictions of people and situations. She set expectations very clearly via the invoice/timeline and drew clear boundaries. The annual report has been viewed online by thousands of people. A few of our donors have mentioned how much they loved the artwork, and how it ‘dances across the pages.’ It felt refreshing and inspiring!
