Coaching and hiring
A better model for early-stage brand and product design.
The traditional hiring process is slow, risky, and expensive. Founders need a partner who can bridge the gap between high-level strategy and hands-on execution, without the risk and long-term commitment of a full-time hire. My approach combines senior-level thinking with hands-on product design craft, including the visual systems and brand clarity that make a product feel credible from the very start.
The bridge between strategy and execution.
Senior-level thinking paired with hands-on design craft.
Foundation Projects
Fixed-scope project
For bringing a new product to market or tackling a major redesign. We will establish a strong foundation for your app, website, or hardware and software experience. This includes UX flows, prototypes, and the visual system that makes the product feel credible from day one. Ideal when you need a clear design direction without a long-term commitment.
The Hiring Bridge
Fractional / monthly retainer
For founders needing immediate senior design leadership without rushing a critical hire. I accelerate your roadmap with hands-on product design, working directly with engineering to keep progress moving. Along the way I help shape your visual language and design system so your product and brand stay consistent. When the time is right, I can help hire for the right long-term gig.
Advisory & Leadership
Low-touch monthly retainer
For founders or design teams who need a trusted senior perspective. I provide ongoing guidance, design critiques, and mentorship that keeps your internal team aligned and confident. This covers both product and brand execution, ensuring a high bar across every customer touchpoint. A flexible option when you want senior oversight without adding headcount.
I take on a select number of projects each year to ensure a high level of focus. Currently prioritizing projects in creator platforms, AI, connected hardware, and brand and visual systems for ambitious new products.
