About
I design the parts of a company people touch first: the mark, the box, the screen. Eleven years in, I still work alone on purpose. You talk to the person drawing, every decision has a reason you can repeat to your team, and nothing ships that I would not put my name on. Most clients are founders with a real product and a small budget, and most of them come back.
