Designing + building things is hard 😐
As a designer, it sometimes seems like you're expected to be good at everything, especially if you're the first designer on a team
so whether you’re just getting started in design or have been doing it for decades, everyone runs into challenges that could use an outside perspective.
I really love helping with that
I've done hundreds of one-on-one and group sessions working with people of different disciplines, experience levels, and backgrounds reflect on their goals and get to the next level in their work.
and I learn a lot through doing these too, like how to be a better manager and teammate

simple
Schedule your first meeting, and we'll go from there. This first session is always free.
and if you’re a student, underrepresented in design/tech, or if cost would be a obstacle, it's free beyond that, too
For others, we may discuss an ongoing rate that lets us both invest in the relationship over time. We’ll discuss these details in our first conversation.
(many people are reimbursed through an company L&D budget—happy to talk through that, too)
