RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Jason Barrett
    Vice President of PoolCandy ( B&D Group )

    As Vice President at PoolCandy, I had the pleasure of managing Shine directly during her time as a Senior Creative. She was a key member of our small, fast-paced product development team and brought a rare combination of technical skill, design talent, and independent thinking that made her stand out from day one.

    I believe she’s well positioned for a creative leadership role, especially one that values innovation, independence, and cross-functional thinking. She’s thoughtful, reliable, and brings a lot of heart to her work. I’m confident she’ll thrive wherever she lands next.

    Shine’s performance was truly remarkable. She took charge of a tight timeline, directing the creation of over 20 artists' video and graphic artworks. Each piece was carefully crafted to be visually stunning and adapted perfectly to the unique billboard layouts. Shine’s ability to maintain clarity, focus, and direction under such immense pressure was nothing short of inspiring.
