Coaching & Advisory

Helping designers and teams ship, lead, and grow.

Beyond my own work, I coach the people doing this work now — scaling teams, building design systems used by thousands, and shipping products across SaaS, enterprise, and consumer.

Who I Coach

For the people building the product — and the team.

01

Designers stepping into leadership

ICs moving into their first lead or manager role who want to grow influence without losing the craft.

02

Design & product managers

Leaders scaling teams, defining operating models, and earning a real seat at the strategy table.

03

Founders & early teams

Startups shaping product, brand, and an AI strategy that actually ships — not just a deck.

What We Work On

Strategy and craft — never one without the other.

Career & positioning

Leveling up, portfolios, interviews, and telling a story that lands with the rooms you want to be in.

Team & systems

Building high-performing teams, design systems, and rituals that balance autonomy with alignment.

Strategy & influence

Treating design as a business function — driving direction, not just decoration.

Shipping in the AI era

Finding the AI bets worth making and designing experiences people actually trust.
