I design products for teams that know design shouldn't be an afterthought.

I help shape the product alongside you, thinking through flows and features, pushing back on requests that don't make sense (and explaining why), and building systems from day one.
We'll be a good fit if you've got a validated idea, a rough prototype, or an early MVP, and you're committed to building your product right.
I'll be your partner who gives a shit about your product, as if it's my own.

What's included

šŸ“‹ User flow diagrams & information architecture
šŸŽØ Design system (colors, typography, spacing, components)
šŸ–„ļø High-fidelity UI design
ā„¹ļø Edge case designs (empty states, loading, errors)
āœ… Dev-ready Figma file with annotations
šŸ“ Product documentation as a source of truth for future decisions

Process

Discovery. We walk through your research, prototype, or existing product. I ask hard questions to make sure we're solving the right problems.
Filling the gaps. Additional research or brainstorm phases to fill the missing pieces.
Journey mapping. Laying out flows, sketching out lo-fi prototypes.
UI Concept. Establishing the visual style.
Design system foundation. Starting out with a library of typography, colors, and basic reusable components. To be completed as design goes.
High-fidelity design. I design the whole product with everything covered: edge cases, dead ends and other things that could get missed.
Developer hand-off. You get an organized Figma file, component library, and a documentation so your dev team knows exactly what to build.

After we're done...

Most of my clients stick around for ongoing work. Iterating based on user feedback, designing new features, refining flows as the product grows.
FAQs
Nope. Some clients come with full docs, wireframes, and references. Others just have a validated idea and some rough notes. Either way works. We'll figure out what we need in the discovery phase.
Whatever you already use – Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, just let me know. For feedback & reviews: Figma comments or Looms work great, but we can always jump on a call if needed.
Small pivots: We adjust and keep going. Big pivots (different target user, core features changing): We pause, reassess scope, and agree on next steps.
Both depends on the size of the project and the starting material you came with. Small consumer apps can take 1-3 months, and usually start at $7,000. Feature-heavy SaaS platforms can take 6+ months and can get up to $30,000 or more.
I don't work with gambling, religious organizations, or anything promoting hateful/discriminatory messages towards other people.
Yes, just mention it before we start working.
