““Hilary was referred to me by a mutual colleague on the eve of rolling out our new website. Given all of the work that had already gone into the website I was inclined to not call but his referral was so enthusiastic I couldn’t resist. I’m so glad that I did and I still thank him for the intro every time that we speak. The following are highlights, just to name of few, of my experience working with Hilary:
- Responsiveness: Hilary is high energy, has a positive attitude, and is super responsive. It makes all of her other qualities that much better because progress can be made quickly and efficiently.
- Brand Experience: I felt Hilary had an excellent grasp of branding and marketing strategies. While she has the ability to handle projects that are large in scope, her experience with the big picture allows her to more effectively work on targeted exercises (as was the case on our project).
- Value: I found Hilary to be fair with her pricing and efficient with her time. Her contribution to our website was exceptionally value-added. In fact, we are currently in discussion about doing more work together.”

““Hiring Hilary Adorno to create my new website was such a great decision for my business. I had admired the branding and web design she had been doing for other businesses and her reputation as a highly skilled and creative professional was well known. After our first phone call, I felt immediately at ease and knew I was in good hands. Hilary’s expertise in Squarespace was exactly what this tech-challenged girl needed. Through our emails and phone conversations, I conveyed the esthetic, and more importantly, the feeling I wanted my website to evoke. Hilary exceeded every expectation. She made recommendations that I would never have thought of that are now my websites favorite features. She has happily helped when I have had questions on making additions to copy or photos. I now have an amazingly beautiful website that I love and has driven new business my way. I could not recommend Hilary Adorno more for branding and web design.”
