About this service

Summary

Startups move quickly — and so do I, but with intention. As your design partner, I help turn rough ideas, evolving priorities, and scrappy roadmaps into intuitive, user-friendly experiences your customers will want to use.
I’m here to go beyond pretty screens. I help you think through the product, align with your users, and build a design that supports momentum, not slows it down. Here’s how I typically support fast-moving teams:
Understand the Context
We’ll begin by identifying your current stage, whether it's an MVP, version 2, or launching something new. I will ask questions, explore what’s working and what isn’t, and define what success entails.
Map the Experience
From core flows to key interactions, I will help outline the user journey. I prioritize functionality by creating wireframes and flows that emphasize usability and logic before moving on to visuals.
Design the Interface
Once the foundation is established, I will bring your product to life with a clean and modern UI design that aligns with your brand or helps shape it. You can expect thoughtful layouts, a strong visual hierarchy, and meticulous attention to detail, all of which will enhance the overall experience.
Prototype & Test
I will create clickable prototypes to gather feedback, conduct testing, and facilitate development handoff. These prototypes are effective for securing stakeholder buy-in, testing with users, or pitching to investors.
Build for Speed & Scale
If needed, I’ll assist in developing or enhancing a design system — reusable components, patterns, and guidelines that facilitate faster scaling and ensure consistency across teams.
Collaborate & Iterate
I work in an asynchronous-friendly manner and prioritize moving quickly without compromising quality. You will receive regular updates, Loom walkthroughs, and clear next steps to ensure you're always informed. Think of me as an extension of your team, rather than just a freelancer.

What's included

  • End-to-end product design

    I handle the entire product design process from zero to launch, from initial ideation and user flows to high-fidelity UI screens. Whether it’s a new feature, MVP, or core product revamp, I create intuitive and refined experiences.

  • User Flows & Interactive Prototypes

    I create clear, logical flows that mirror real user interactions with your product. Then, I bring these flows to life using clickable prototypes, which are perfect for testing, gathering feedback, or showcasing to investors.

  • Design Systems or Component Libraries

    I will assist you in creating a modular design system or enhancing your existing one. This will include reusable components, design tokens, spacing guidelines, and comprehensive documentation, which will streamline and accelerate future collaboration between design and development teams.

  • Design Audits & Strategic UX Insights

    I evaluate your product or website based on UX principles and your business objectives. You'll receive a clear, actionable report with recommendations to enhance usability, flow, and visual coherence.

  • Quick Turnarounds & Async Collaboration

    I thrive in the fast-paced environment of startups. I easily adapt to your workflows and work asynchronously, delivering quick iterations without compromising quality. You can expect regular check-ins, design updates, and clear next steps.

  • Post-launch Support

    Continued support and consultation after the product launch, including addressing any arising issues and making necessary improvements.
