Founding Designer as a Service
Startups often spend 2–4 months hiring a designer, and that gap is more expensive than most founders realize. I close that gap immediately — taking full design ownership and protecting the metrics that matter most while the search continues.
Fully remote — I adapt to your timezone, wherever you're based.
Available 1–3 months.
PROBLEM / SOLUTION
HOW IT WORKS
Design decisions come from understanding how users arrive, what motivates them, and what the business is trying to achieve. That context is the input.
With that context, I work with the CEO, the team, and the data to improve any experience that moves the needle — user flows, onboarding, core product moments, design system, delivery speed. Whatever is costing the business most.
When your permanent designer starts, I brief them on where everything stands — file infrastructure and the design-business context that took time to build. They hit the ground running.
RESULT
Defined the design direction from scratch, reducing time-to-market and aligning two competing audiences — which resulted in a revenue stream.
Built the design culture, scaled design maturity and stayed through the full growth arc, from 8 to 300+ people.
