Founding Designer as a Service
Full design ownership while you hire.
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.
PROBLEM / SOLUTION
Hiring a designer takes 2–4 months.
Your customers don't wait.
Most founders underestimate the opportunity cost of that hiring time — not just in velocity, but in the compounding damage to Conversion, Retention, Time-to-Market, and Support. The cost isn't visible at first. It compounds silently.
Full design ownership from day one — your funnels, your design system, your product.
One
invoice. No complexity. I hand off when your permanent designer starts.
HOW IT WORKS
How I plug in
01 — Diagnose
Design decisions come from understanding how users arrive, what motivates them, and what the business is trying to achieve. That context is the input.
02 — Execute
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.
03 — Handoff
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.
