Testimonials
"Carrie is an intuitive creative, quick to adapt and yet takes the time to consider your needs, interpreting direction coming from one or many into her one of a kind, inspired art. I worked with Carrie over several years on the majority of textile print designs for TomboyX. All our work was communicated online, and yet she always made it feel personal. Her comps were fast and directional; the final work on-brand with that special touch. I'd work with Carrie again and highly recommend her."

"This letter is my personal and professional recommendation for Carrie Trimm. I was first introduced to Carrie when she hired me at Fox Head Inc in February of 2007. At that time she was working as the graphics director for the Juniors clothing line.
Carrie is one of the most hard-working people I’ve ever known. Her ability to work under stressful conditions and nerve-wrecking deadlines speaks volumes about her hard work and determination. Carrie is a compassionate and hardworking human being with perseverance and ambition. I found her to be consistently pleasant, tackling all assignments with dedication and a smile.
Besides being a joy to work with, Carrie is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas. She always finds a way to inspire and uplift those around her. Creative freedom is something Carrie always made sure her team had. She always found a way to keep us motivated and excited about being at work.
Thanks to all the above mentioned, Carrie and I have stayed as close friends since I met her. We share similar viewpoints towards life, creativity, and the pursuit of happiness.
I highly recommend Carrie for employment. She is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization and am available for any further details you wish to know about her."
