“Uma, the guiding light I encountered during my MFA journey in Durham, illuminated my path through the challenging process of constructing my website. With exceptional efficiency and a diverse range of talents, she nurtures a community that celebrates creativity in its purest form. I deeply appreciate her invaluable assistance in developing my website while I was pursuing an MFA in Documentary and Experimental Arts at Duke. Uma's swift and selfless support was a lifeline during a difficult period. Her unwavering commitment to helping others shines brightly, solidifying her status as an indispensable asset to the creative community.”
ANITA SHARIF HYDER
Associate Head, Trumbull College, Yale
“I had the pleasure to work and connect with Uma during a magical time at the Yale World Fellows Program, where she brought her innate creativity, an ability to push boundaries in a traditional environment, and technical wizardry in moving not only the program but its participants to a greater level of sophistication and relevance. Uma is able to translate opaque ideas into beautiful and accessible mediums so that you are part of the experience. Her work showcases her philosophy on bringing light to stories for diverse audiences...she is a gifted storyteller and one to have - always - in your corner.”
Dr. Michael Cappello
Professor, Yale University
“Uma brings light and truth to everything she touches. As communications director for Yale World Fellows, Uma tirelessly advocated on behalf of the remarkable individuals whose lives we sought to enrich through reflection, learning and community. Her optimism, wit, sense of justice, commitment to diversity and indefatigable spirit buoyed us all as we navigated challenging times. For that, I will always be grateful, impressed and inspired.”
Dan Mims
Founder, Daily Nutmeg
“Writing for us, Uma was a true pro. She pitched great ideas, hit her deadlines, wrote engaging stories and took stunning photos that really captured the essence of her subject matter. She was also fun and easy to work with! Can’t recommend her enough for your next project.”
Dr. Mireille Kamariza
Scientist/Professor
“I had the honor and absolute pleasure to work with Uma over the past year or so. I was looking to build a personal brand that would appeal to a wide audience. Uma asked pertinent questions to hone in on my vision and subsequently gave me a drop-dead gorgeous pitch that was exactly what I was looking for. In addition, her ideals for justice and her commitment to diversity were inspiring and deeply moving. All in all, Uma has an undeniable talent with an exquisite artistic touch and an acute perception of what her clients want. It was simply a pure joy to collaborate with Uma. I highly recommend her!”
Mark Oppenheimer
Writer, Professor
“I believe that Uma’s branding and website design for Thread at Yale, our annual storytelling conference, was instrumental in creating a brand that has grown every year since its inception. She gave us a clean, attractive look - but more important, she gave us a look that merged seamlessly with our editorial philosophy. It wasn’t just gorgeous design—it was smart design.”
