Coaching for designers and creative leaders

You can be good at the work and still feel stuck inside it. I spent twenty years in design and over five leading teams, so the particular knots creative people tie themselves in are familiar ones.

Made for

People who make things

Ferns crowding an arched window in a garden

Senior designers weighing the jump

You keep being told management is the obvious next step, and you are genuinely not sure you want it.

A dragon tree standing against the sky

Design leaders carrying a lot

You hold the team's morale, the roadmap, and the critique. Nobody is especially holding yours.

Pink blossom against a clear sky

Creatives who lost the thread

The craft that used to feel like yours has quietly turned into deliverables, and you want it back.

What we work on

The conversations underneath the work

Design careers rarely stall for design reasons. They stall on the things that are harder to say out loud: whether you still want this, what you are protecting, who you are performing for. That is the material we work with.

Naming what you actually want

Not the next title on the ladder. The thing you would choose if the ladder were not there.

Taste, confidence, and critique

Trusting your own eye again, and separating useful feedback from noise you have absorbed.

Influence without authority

Being heard by partners and stakeholders without turning into someone you do not like.

This is the part that is genuinely hard to do on your own.

How it works

Starting is low stakes

01

A free 25-minute call

We talk. No pitch and no prep needed. You get a feel for how I work and whether it lands for you.

We name what you're working on

If it's a fit, we get specific about what you want to be different, and what we'd actually spend the time on.

03

We meet, one on one

Regular conversations where I listen first, tell you the truth as I see it, and stay in your corner.

Want to chat?

Free 25-minute call, and no pitch. It doubles as a sample coaching session, so you leave with something either way. We will talk through packages and pricing there too.
