You're shipping fast, but the product doesn't feel like it. Flows that made sense in a planning doc confuse real users. The interface works but feels lifeless. And motion — the thing that makes a product feel considered — keeps getting cut because nobody has time.

I take that on as an embedded design partner. Not an agency, not a ticket queue. The same senior designer every week, in your Slack and your Figma.

For 13 years I've designed interfaces for products where the experience is the product — award-winning MBUX at Mercedes-Benz, in-vehicle AI shown at CES, an AI-native home platform. Also GM, Ford, Qualcomm and Nvidia. Now I do that work for teams building something new.

Startups and product teams without a senior designer in-house

You've shipped, but UX and polish are holding you back

You want design and motion from one person, not two hires

Senior product design — UX, UI, flows, design systems. The same person every week.

Motion & interaction design — not decoration. Motion that makes the interface legible.

Rive animations — production-ready, dropped straight into your build. No handoff gap.

Working prototypes — click-through, ready for testing, not static mockups.

Strategic input — opinions on the roadmap and the work, not just execution.

Embedded in your team — Slack, Figma, your weekly sync. Async by default.

What's not included Brand identity, illustration, front-end development.

Free intro call — we talk through your product and where design helps most

Want to see the work first? Start with the two-week Design Sprint, and I'll credit it against your first month if you continue.

One flat monthly fee, rolling month to month after an initial 3-month engagement.

One active workstream at a time. First drafts within 3 working days. Async updates twice weekly plus a 60-minute call. Need two things moving in parallel? That's a second slot.
