Services

I’m a brand designer and creative director who builds identity systems, design frameworks and launch campaigns for ambitious web3, fintech and AI startups, from a first brand sprint to a long-term design partnership.

Working together feels less like hiring an agency and more like adding a senior creative lead to your team. You work with me directly, on calls and async, with no account layers in between.

I take the time to understand your product, your market and where you’re headed, then build a brand your team can run with, and stay on as a creative partner for as long as it’s needed.

You’re probably here because one of these is true.

  • You’re raising. The deck, the site and the brand have to look like a company further along than you are, in front of investors who have seen fifty others that week.
  • You’re about to launch. There’s a date, a community waiting and one shot at a strong first impression.
  • You pivoted. The product changed, and the brand still describes the old one.
  • Nobody has a category for what you do. In a space as new as onchain finance, the brand has to do the explaining a familiar category would do for free.
  • You look smaller than your competitor. Same protocol, same promise, but users and partners trust the team that looks more serious.
  • You’re hiring. Great candidates have better options, and they judge your company before the first call.
  • Your team keeps rebuilding the same things. No brand system, no guidelines, and design has become the slowest part of shipping.
  • You vibecoded the product and it got traction. Congrats. Now it needs to look like it was built on purpose.
