Christa has been the most talented Web Designer that I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She is incredibly thoughtful. Christa worked with me to define the scope of the project we worked on together, followed through on her commitments while also providing her insights and subject matter expertise in web design, and executed it flawlessly. She is detail-oriented, highly collaborative, and incredibly skilled at what she does. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with her and highly recommend her.

I worked with Christa at Billtrust for over two years — as the Principal Visual Designer, I was responsible for giving brand and design feedback and collaborated with her on many projects. Christa is one of the most talented, thoughtful, and creative designers I’ve had the pleasure of working with in my career. I was extremely sad to lose her from our team, and I know she will be a big asset to whichever team is lucky enough to hire her next.

Christa is one of the designers that just gets it. I can always approach her with a strategic initiative, talk through some of the audience and goal considerations, and trust her to understand how best to execute without having to have tactics dictated to her. She understands audience considerations and how to present brand positioning through art.

On top of that, the way she organizes her projects and how she presents ideas for feedback make working with her both easy and comforting. Her technical skill is top notch, but her presentation is simple enough that she makes complicated executions feel approachable.

Christa’s approach to web design is marked by her creativity and meticulous attention to detail. She consistently goes beyond expectations, conceptualizing and designing digital experiences—from wireframes to fully responsive web pages and landing pages—that are not only visually stunning but also optimized for conversion and accessibility.

What sets Christa apart is her ability to seamlessly blend artistic creativity with a deep understanding of user experience (UX) principles. She actively collaborates with cross-functional teams, including designers, managers, content writers, and stakeholders, to ensure that every design decision aligns with our strategic goals and enhances the overall user journey.

Collaborating and working with Christa on wireframes was smooth and easy. Why? Because Christa understands the importance of SEO (search engine optimization) and UX copywriting. I highly appreciated this because for some reason, others dismiss SEO, even though users search for products and services via Google, Bing, YouTube, etc. Christa understands that copy, design, and SEO go together.

Christa’s proficiency with tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS, FIGMA, PiwikPro, Mutiny, Sitecore CMS, and WordPress enables her to not only design but also implement and iterate on her designs effectively. Christa’s contributions have been instrumental in driving digital initiatives forward, consistently delivering high-quality work that exceeds expectations.

I highly recommend Christa for any role where creativity, technical expertise, and a passion for creating exceptional digital experiences are valued. She would be an invaluable asset to any team looking to elevate their web design capabilities and deliver impactful results.

Christa is like a soft ray of sunshine in a spring meadow. She’s just got an energy that you could be around all day. She’s always willing to help out, and express new ideas. She delves very deep into collaboration and it can yield unexpected new things from a project. She also doesn’t stop until all of the details are exactly as the client wished. She takes leadership responsibilities very seriously and also is empathetic toward the feelings of her fellow group members.

Christa is incredibly talented. Her approach to design is deep and immersive, learning all aspects of a project before even beginning. This allows her to create a detailed, meaningful piece that both wows and inspires. Her design style is modern, clean, and adaptable, yet she isn’t afraid of coloring outside the lines. She’s an excellent collaborator and brings a lot of positivity to the team. She’s truly a pleasure to work with.

As a non-profit we have been fortunate to work hands on with Christa many times over the last five years. She has been a key element in putting our new website together, never before has anyone taken the time to walk me through step by step on how to update our site or make changes! When it came time to hand it off to me, Christa provided a complete written tutorial which I could take back to work with me. One of the biggest perks of working with Christa has been her strong communication skills. When I have struggled or had questions, she has bent over backwards to make sure I walk away feeling confident. Her professionalism has impressed not only me but our entire Board of Directors. Thank you for all of your patience, energy and enthusiasm for your work!

It was my pleasure to guide Christa Kranig as a shelter manager and volunteer coordinator for a small nonprofit in South Dakota. Christa maintained an active client relationship with 100+ volunteers alongside keeping the daily operations of an animal shelter top notch. She is energetic, thorough, and kind. She has creative skills, organizational leadership, and true professionalism.

Within my Graphic Design career of over 25 years, I have crossed paths with many designers with average talent; however, it is a seldom occurrence to encounter designers of Kranig’s caliber. She has a passion that translates into our discipline’s best practices, resulting in the most refined design products. Her solid knowledge of visual arts and keen intuition on the subject furnish her with the best tools to become a sure asset for any company she becomes part of.
