She had a knack for understanding the needs of our business, which she partnered with her expertise, best practices/methods to help us employ strategies and build foundations that will take us to the next level. She always brought creative solutions and her attention to detail and project management made it easy for our team to move forward on our journey to better distributed work. Everyone who had the opportunity to work with Darcy during her contract with us truly admired her. I will forever be grateful for all that I learned from Darcy and for the contributions she made!"

    - Cassandra Margolin, Head of People, Jasper.ai

  • “It was such a wonderful experience to work with Darcy and learn from her. Darcy is a true ambassador of remote and it's inspiring to see how she’s led such a positive shift in the way we work. It is a privilege to continue to learn from her.”

    - Lindsey Gove, Enterprise Account Manager, Medely

  • "Darcy is one of the most knowledgeable persons in the remote community, her experience at TaxJar is inspiring and someone I follow closely to get the best information and trends in the remote work space. Working with Darcy is nothing less than a pleasure and an inspiring experience."

    — Gonçalo Hall, CEO at NOMADX, Founder of Remote Work Europe

  • "Having a conversation with Darcy is eye opening, a peak into a more inclusive and purpose driven work style. Not only you get immediately motivated by her passion, but you also learn about actual practices you can use to set and nurture this environment in your organisation. One of those people you want to have close to your business."

    — Carol Palombini, PhD, Executive Leadership Coach

  • “I really appreciate Darcy’s energy and ideas. Her passion for creating positive employee experiences is so evident, and it is something I hope to recreate in my current company.

    — Caitlin States, University of Utah Remote Work Leader Course student

  • "Darcy has been a phenomenal thought partner and friend at every turn. Whether it's iterating on a referral program for remote-first leaders or building out an event experience for local People teams, Darcy consistently brings so much energy, insight, and creativity to every conversation and touchpoint. Her tight project management skills are also an incredible asset, especially when working on a short timeline with multiple stakeholders. I can't recommend Darcy enough."

    - Jackie Chen, Senior Partnerships Manager, at Hone

  • "Darcy helped me make sense of why certain business relationships break, while others stick like honey. Why some employees have stayed with me—no matter what way I pivot or turn, and why others have faltered. Connect with Darcy and get ready to have words for that which you know and feel, but simply haven’t named."

    — Janne Robinson, Author, Poet and Speaker

  • Darcy's knowledge and expertise within the remote work community is unparalleled. Her SHIFT system is exactly what digital agencies need to jumpstart and define their remote-work culture. It encourages more engagement and efficiency from your online workers and even helps with employee retention which can be difficult to navigate when you don't have an office location. I highly recommend integrating the system into your remote work structure.
