What people say

Takes full ownership of product design, often stepping up in the absence of a PM

Janis Lead product designer at Prezi · 2025
What does Erika do well?
  • Always transparent and focused on finding better solutions through continuous feedback and research.
  • Explores different approaches and considers problems at various scales to identify the most effective path.
  • A great and easy collaborator—brings structure, clearly represents her work, and is open to feedback and new ideas.
  • Takes full ownership of product design for Infogram, often identifying areas for improvement and stepping up in the absence of a PM, even in challenging and sometimes frustrating situations.
How could she improve?
  • She has started creating prototypes and concepts—this is a good direction to continue, focusing on a more strategic and architectural approach to Infogram.

I have heard only and ONLY good feedback from all of my developers about her work

Roberts Engineering manager at Infogram · 2024
What does Erika do well?

I have heard only and ONLY good feedback from all of my developers about her work - understanding the problem, market research, well-thought-through design with attention to detail, and so on.

Not even to mention that she slices the data in the mitzu dashboards to understand our users, their behavior, and the problem.

So, whatever she did, either that is her own initiative or growth plan has created Erika on steroids :)

Raimonds (Infogram founder) said that she is the best designer (we are not talking about visionary designers) he has ever seen. A lot of compliments, and kudos in this writing but I truly believe that represents the reality, what I think about her, her work, and what the team thinks.

How could she improve?

For me, it seems that she is on a great development/growth path, and she should simply continue doing what she is doing. I can’t list any improvements for her.

Her designs are never out-of-touch with technical limitations

Aleksejs Staff engineer at Infogram · 2024
What does Erika do well?

Erika is an amazing person to work with. She consistently provides multiple designs for features we develop and usually when designs are discussed later she is always prepared with the explanations and research that resulted in the decisions so that’s easy to iterate. Erika is also great for checking some technical solutions what could be done so that designs are never out-of-touch with technical limitations.

How could she improve?

It hard to say, one of the small improvement, although she already does that, is to try design things more iteratively.

Erika is the designer our engineering team has been dreaming of for many years

Raimonds Co-founder at Infogram · 2024

Erika is the designer our engineering team has been dreaming of for many years - with a perfect attention to detail, care for edgecases, with the ability to provide clear instructions how to proceed and why something is made like this instead of like that.

And she’s not afraid of touching the codebase herself, applying fixes where necessary without the involvement of engineers.

And she’s not just about how good a button looks but also about how well it performs, so just the best things to say about working with Erika.
