“Skye was my direct manager during my Data Graphics fellowship at Insider. It was my first job in data viz, and my first professional experience of a newsroom. From the interview process, to training, and through to day to day operations, Skye was patient, insightful, and passionate. Skye invested her time in facilitating my growth and learning. I always felt safe to explore new things and pitch ideas without fear, and was constantly encouraged by Skye to push myself. I was always given the space to express how I felt as Skye had clearly spent years fostering an environment that was a safe space to voice doubts or concerns, and was always constructive and purposeful with her responses. Skye would regularly check in with me to see how I was feeling about my progress. She was always open to hearing my goals and helped me to set targets, and helped me hold myself accountable for achieving them - whilst always feeling supported by her at the same time. She trained me on tools that were new to me such as Datawrapper, Figma, and Adobe Illustrator. She helped me further my understanding of data graphics and visualisation. Skye also helped me navigate working remotely, which was especially difficult for me working in a different timezone (UK). Throughout the process it was very clear to me that Skye was extremely knowledgeable, and well versed in design. All in all, I can say that Skye was my first experience of what I believe a manager should be, and I feel very lucky to have worked under her. The respect that she commanded from her team was testament to everything I have mentioned, and she would be an asset to any team that she is a part of.”
