Women who are my heroes in the creative industry? View a collection of the ones I have gathered over the years.
Rocking it still today?
Designboom has been around since 1999. Birgit launched it just a year after us. It has been striving and gathering not only quality content but a large readership as well. Its appreciation keeps on growing.
Well deserved too imo.

Swiss Miss is in Tina’s words: a design blog/studio she started in 2005. I actually discovered her portfolio right around then, and was taken by her different approach in presenting her design work. Her tentaculous projects are immensely successful.
One of her well-known project is the Creative Mornings which expanded the world over: not a small feat for a swiss girl in NYC.
People too weak to follow their own dreams, will always find a way to discourage yours.

Curation is my passion—after investing 10 years curating design on the now defunct Ello platform—I am coming back to my baby: Netdiver mag. I am still pursuing an art practice + writing non-fiction (that project is also in the works) + songwriting. I always was a beesy-body but really—if you read this—I am coming back baby!
See ya soon. xo

Got a terrific project? I am always on the lookout for talent: submit to be featured.
