Clients' Praise

• Stock Executive Search

  Toby Stock | Founder + CEO | Washington, DC

  "As I was thinking about a logo and branding (and website, etc.) for my new business, I wanted a look and feel that strongly suggested quality, professionalism, and seriousness of purpose. Erna took me through a process that ended up exactly where we needed to go. I have already received a number of unsolicited comments on the quality of my materials--and Erna deserves the lion's share of credit for that. She also brings a great deal of professionalism and quality to her work and I highly recommend working with her. My team and I truly enjoy continuing our collaboration with Erna and her team in growing Stock Executive Search to the next level."

  Sofia Ava | Founder + Owner | Santa Ana, CA

  "Working with Erna and her creative team for the past 4 years has made the process of developing my brand exciting and fun. I'm so grateful to have worked with her, for her creativity and ability to visualize the potential of product design before it's completed makes her an excellent partner in such projects. She is a visionary, a kind soul, and incredibly dedicated to what she does. I remember multiple times she has worked very late with me to meet project deadlines and I can't express my gratitude enough for that. She has helped me launch so many product collections and grow my brand in significant and meaningful ways. I can't wait to continue working with Blooming Aces."

  "Erna and I have been working together for the past 7 years in a truly meaningful partnership. What stands out most is her ability to really listen. She understands the "soul" of a brand and brings forward thoughtful options that feel authentic while still pushing things forward. Her impact is real. Because of the work she's led, we've been able to expand into highly credible retailers like REI, which speaks volumes. She is very intentional in her recommendations, always thinking through how one decision connects to the broader business. On top of that, she's well-connected, brings a strong point of view, and consistently adds value across creative, marketing, and full customer journey. If you're looking for someone who can both think strategically and execute with care, Erna is that person. I'll always advocate for the value she brings to any organization."
