Absolute superstar!
Sumana is an absolute superstar, seamlessly blending her talents in social impact projects, design, and website development. Studio Saltwater is a true reflection of her dedication and expertise. Sumana’s genuine commitment makes her and her all-in-one business invaluable partners for any mission-driven initiative.
Exceptional experience.
Working with Studio Saltwater has been an exceptional experience. They created email templates that perfectly align with our new branding for the new enrollment and awareness initiatives. Despite the challenges posed by our difficult-to-use email management system, their team demonstrated remarkable adaptability and expertise. The templates are not only visually appealing but also highly effective in engaging with our school networks and different target audiences. We couldn't be more pleased with the results and look forward to continued collaboration with their talented team.
The best!
Sumana did an amazing job for my company, Home-Cost.com. She redesigned the site for simple navigation and effective product promotion. She focused on SEO resulting in orders of magnitude growth in our traffic volume. And she did it with grace, patience and a confident expertise that has made the process very enjoyable. I continue to retain her services because she is the best web developer I have come across, and I have worked with some of the larger web design firms in the past. Sumana and Saltwater Stories are the best!
Nothing I've ever seen before.
Sumana was able to take my very abstract ideas and produce a website that is like nothing I've ever seen before. At no point did she say anything was impossible or improbable. Instead, she spoke positively about every idea and found amazing solutions.
I also appreciate that she was as passionate about the website concept as I was. My vision became her vision as soon as she signed on for the project. My company is extremely grateful for the platform she's created for us. It is as imaginative and innovative as it is user-friendly. This website exemplifies the spirit of my company in the most perfect way.
My support system as a I launched a new business.
Sumana did an absolutely amazing job. Not only did she build my website, but she genuinely was a sound board for me and all of my ideas. I can't thank her enough and refer her to ALL of my friends and family for anything website, marketing, business related. She is the best.
Talented force of nature!
Sumana's strong leadership skills elevated her to stand in as the project manager, and we turned over the entire rebranding effort of our firm to her care and guidance. Without Sumana's direct involvement, our branding efforts would be a year behind where they are now.
Sumana is a natural leader, equally at ease in a conversation with top management as she is supporting the newest, nervous team member.
Your project will be blessed and your team all the richer for Sumana's spirit and impressive skill set.
