Overall, it was a very valuable experience, which was much needed for my career goals. Tasha was absolutely treated, maintained really good feedback and most importantly, was patient and understanding. Making this experience a valuable one.

It was a privilege to work for BBYF because of its great cause. Expectations were clearly laid out and accommodations were granted when needed.

It was a pleasure to work with Tasha at the Building Black Youth Foundation. She provided me with feedback on my work and was always available if I had any questions. The weekly meetings were also very helpful, as they provided a platform for open communication, where I could discuss my progress, challenges, and ideas. Overall, it was a great experience and I am proud to have worked with an organization that is dedicated to uplifting and empowering Black youth, and making a tangible difference in their lives and the community at large.

Thank you for the opportunity to work with you. It was a great and receptive team.

Good boss

Taslaine Industries provides an incredibly welcoming and relaxed environment and I truly enjoyed working on their project. Awesome people and a fun experience!

This is my second time working with Taslaine Publishing industries. I had great experiences and I’m glad to join the project again! Tasha provides clear guidance, helpful feedback, and generous support throughout the project. I would recommend this project and organization to anyone who loves illustration and is eager to express their creative passion.

This company is young and eager to learn alongside their interns. They give the intern creative room to explore their own visual interpretation of written concepts. They allow the intern to roll with their own artistic style. When modification is specified as required by the project lead they are clear in conveying the changes they want to see. The intern has the opportunity to work directly with the author of the book they are creating illustrations for. The workload can get quite heavy but the project lead is happy to make accommodations if the intern feels the workload is too much to complete within the 80 hour threshold. If you enjoy illustrating and are a good team player this is the placement for you!

It was a real pleasure working with Taslaine Publishing Industries, Tasha and the team! Everyone was accommodating, and communication was very smooth and organized. The work opportunities they provided me were very valuable and helped me learn and hone my skillset further! Overall, I really enjoyed my time working on this project.
