About

I've been a product designer for 20+ years and now run a product design collective called Memeador. I've done it all from pre-seed startups to public enterprise, and now I'm immersed in the world of agentic workflows, and how designers and other creatives can make ideas real - and profitable - using AI. It's been a minute since I've been in corporate, but I interviewed hundreds of designers in my principal roles; I also deeply understand the struggle of finishing your portfolio (it took me 3 years to finally redesign mine even though it was badly needed lol) and can help you with prompts, tools and structures for your own.

How I can help

I’ve interviewed a lot of designers for roles, and seen a lot of portfolios. I also think more designers should be founders, and I’m experimenting with ways to make that easy :)
