Smart. Engaged. Passionate. Those are the words I would use to describe Deanne O’Connor. She has the skills to make any publication look great, but she brings so much more to the team with her terrific energy and compelling editorial ideas. We had such fun collaborating and designing a magazine that deeply touched our readers!
— Susan Safipour, former Editor-in-chief at Diablo Magazine

Deanne was a pleasure to work with on creative projects that required flexibility and design smarts. She met every deadline, worked professionally with lots of different personalities, and brought lots of ideas to the table so that every issue had a fresh and engaging look and feel.
— Katherine Ann Rowlands, former Editor-in-Chief at Diablo Magazine and Publisher at LocalNewsMatters.org

Deanne is the most talented art director I’ve ever worked with. Aside from being incredibly creative and having a keen eye for design, she’s also an absolute pleasure to work with. Her collaborative, energetic spirit is contagious, and I’d work with her again in a heartbeat.
— ALEJANDRA SARAGOZA, FORMER MANAGING EDITOR, DIABLO MAGAZINE and currENT MANAGING EDITOR AT ZENDESK
