“Your lecture was truly INCREDIBLE. You're a wonderful speaker and I know it can be tough to lecture to a crowd of sleepy students at 8:30pm! Your critical perspective was a perfect way to end the class and you're doing super invaluable work. You brought together a perfect blend of wardrobe interview quotes, theoretical framing, and personal lived experience, which helped tie everything together perfectly.”

“Overall, my experience with Calla was amazing, I generally wished all my teachers had her style of teaching and positivity throughout the course. She made me feel much more comfortable about my work, asking her for help was always so easy - she is so genuine and patient. She makes the course and everything so light, it felt less overwhelming by her being there because she walked us through everything so perfectly.”
