I pulled wine data while exploring a potential client space. Not to pitch — to understand what’s actually changing. I analyzed 120 trending wine videos. 342M views. 149K comments. After filtering spam and shallow replies, I ended up with 1,200 high-signal comments. What people were really talking about: – “How much is too much?” – “Red wine makes my face swell.” – “It felt like a fine line.” So instead of starting with branding ideas,I used those signals to design a new wine brand concept. Clear labels. Alcohol %, sulfites, pairing, occasion. Wine you can evaluate before you pour. This is the point: Don’t guess what the market wants. Listen to what it’s already saying. Also used some testing for visual direction here in Instagram. Thank you everyone who is voted!

One of my favorite consulting projects: we built several new venture concepts for Ashley and turned our HQ into a full walkthrough of their future. Each room had a dedicated team and a new tech story to reveal—my role was to design the visual world that tied it all together, inspired by data flows, ML, and AI systems.

Imagine you’re starting a coffee brand. The market is oversaturated. Where do you even look? I look at the data. I pulled 120 trending TikTok videos from the last 7 days. 928M views. 462K comments. Then I sorted comments by depth of conversation and likes. The insights? – Menus feel like hieroglyphs – $7 coffee stings – Rituals are broken but deeply emotional From that, I created Grounded. Eco-friendly kits. Custom blends. Health-driven rituals. This is the point: Don’t start with a moodboard. Start with signals. Signals → Design → Product. Curious how this method might apply to your market? Let’s talk.

The market looks clean, calm, and cluttered — everyone’s selling balance, mindfulness, and magnesium. But I don’t start with the moodboard. I look at the data. I pulled 67 trending TikTok videos from the last 3 months across: wellness, longevity, beauty, and health. Together: 75.7M views, 7.3M likes, 99.8K comments. Then I sorted the comments by depth of conversation and engagement. From that, I’d build VitaSync. Personalized vitamins that sync with mood, sleep, and daily rhythm. Not just “feel better” — feel understood. Because the next era of wellness isn’t aesthetic — it’s adaptive. The point: Don’t start with trends. Start with signals. Signals → Design → Product. Curious how this could shape your next brand? Let’s talk.

Imagine you're starting a skincare brand. The market is oversaturated. Where do you even look? I look at the data. I analyzed 1,397 TikTok comments + 179 Reddit posts from skincare communities. So I built Evident - a 3-product line that bridges the gap: → SPF that actually works for all skin tones (30% of Reddit users need this) → Full ingredient transparency with concentrations (25% demand this) → Derm-validated formulations (not influencer-validated) → 90-day money-back guarantee (we stand behind the science) This is how you create products people need - not just ones that look good in a flat lay. Signals → Design → Product. Curious how this method might apply to your market?
