Years designing for startups

The founders I partner with have a strong vision. What's missing is a product and brand as strong as the idea.

Most try to close that gap by adding more features, flows, and screens. The objective gets diluted and metrics don't move.

My work brings focus through design.

Concept to launch

Sound like your product? Let’s talk.

Most founders I talk to are stuck on one of these problems.

We look like every other app in the space.

Brand

Standing out takes a real brand, and brand runs deeper than a logo. It works on people below the level they notice, so it takes care, iteration, and depth. Done right, you stop being one of many.

We’re not getting conversions from social.

We don’t know what to build next.

Users try it once and don’t come back.

One partner for your whole product: brand, design, and the build.

01

Sprint

from $3,750 / week

One week of focused work on whatever you need most.

A brand identity, start to finish

Clarity on what to build for your MVP or roadmap

One feature, from idea to finished design

02

Retainer

from $15k / month

An ongoing partner, embedded in your day-to-day.

Updates every 48 hours, at a founder’s pace

A full product brain: design, strategy, brand, marketing assets

Data-driven. Design decisions grounded in real user behavior, not just taste.

Every choice scaffolds up to a metric: activation, retention, conversion.

03

Design + Dev

from $22k / month

Anyone can build an app now. The difference is taste, judgment, and real backend architecture.

Idea to App Store in about a month

Design plus senior iOS engineering, built with Chase (ex-Raya, Citizen, DoorDash)

Built to change. The code holds up as the product evolves.

Right-sized to your users. Not overbuilt, not fragile.

Senior engineering behind every call, not just generated code

We’ve shipped our own apps, so we build like founders
