Years designing for startups
The founders I partner with have a strong vision. What's missing is a product 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 job is to bring focus through design.

App in the wild
Elegy ↗
A grief-support app with financial help built in. Concept to launch in one month.
1 mo
Concept to shipped.
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.
A studio’s range, without the studio’s overhead.
Pick the scope that fits where you are.
