I work with founders and teams to give ambitious ideas a clear expression, from first concepts to helping established companies find what comes next. I stay close to the work: hands in the file, leading from the design itself.
My approach is direct. Get into design early. Make something tangible. See how it feels, talk about what's working, and refine it together. I've found that the work often moves a conversation forward more than another presentation could.
Most recently, I was a founding design partner at National Design Studio. We started in a chilly garage with Joe Gebbia, before there was much beyond a shared belief in what government design could become. I helped lead design across projects including Trump Accounts and TrumpRx, and led the design of the America.gov launch website. It was an extraordinary opportunity to serve alongside people who cared deeply about the work.
Before that, I designed ecommerce experiences for Apple, led interactive design at Adobe and Frame.io, and was lead designer on the Sonos ecommerce redesign. Along the way, I've worked with Netflix, Microsoft, Dropbox, and Stumptown Coffee.
Those experiences shaped how I work, but so did the people. Some of my proudest work was made shoulder to shoulder with others, sharing ideas and caring enough to make them better. I bring that same spirit to my practice, working directly with clients and bringing in trusted collaborators when the project calls for it.
I care about how things feel, how they work, and what they mean to the people using them. The tools keep changing. The care is still ours to bring.
Have something in mind? Let's talk.
