I worked on several projects with Sharon while we were both at InContext, and still talk about one of them as one of the best project experiences I've had. She is a great designer and and excellent collaborator--able to move a project forward while ensuring the team is doing the right thing.

I am happy to recommend Sharon Harris. We have worked together for a good number of years. She was a full time designer with our firm and more recently as our freelance Sr. Designer. She has a very creative mind and knows how to translate her ideas very professionally to whatever project she is involved with; from a package design for a national brand to the graphics for a website.
Sharon has been a pleasure to know and work with.

Sharon and I have been working together at Wright Design for 10 years. Brands she's worked on include Welch's, BJ's Wholesale Club, Market Basket and Budd Foods. She is a talented graphic designer who combines many essential attributes: a fast read (she grasps an assignment with little explanation); an appreciation of brand strategy and design direction; an ability to execute multiple options of a strategy; rapid turn around (she works quickly); an aptitude to solve difficult design problems and she possesses great versatility. Most importantly, Sharon creates packaging that drives increased sales.
