“Working with springforward to conceptualize, plan and design a poster for a presentation at the International Association for Dance Medicine and Science conference was a wonderful experience. Iona was quick to take on the project and lend her expertise in creating the poster. The finished project was a product of collaborative creativity, and captured the essence of the message we wanted the conference attendees to perceive. Thanks Iona!”

Iona listened to us conceptualize what it was we wanted and was able to distill are many ideas into a clear and visually powerful poster presentation. The process was stress free for us thanks to Iona’s expertise and professionalism.”
