I help UX/design pros fix portfolio and resume gaps that get them rejected before the case study's read.

Book a session

18 years building experience and service design practices, from founding a UX function from scratch to leading design at a Big 4 firm. Now I'm CPO for an AI beauty tech startup, building product from the ground up. That range, from scaling a practice to advising Fortune 500s to founder-mode again, is exactly what taught me what separates a portfolio that lands interviews from one that gets scrolled past: clarity, strategic storytelling, and proof you understand the user's real problem.

Portfolio & Resume Review (Live)

Send your portfolio link and resume when you book. I'll review both before we talk, then we spend 45 minutes going through them together, hiring-manager lens, so you see exactly what a recruiter sees in the first 30 seconds. You'll leave with a prioritized list of fixes, ranked by what actually moves the needle on getting interviews. Materials must be submitted at booking. Sessions may be rescheduled if materials aren't received at least 24 hours before the call.

Free Intro Call - 1:1 Video Call

15 minutes, no cost. Bring a portfolio question, a resume concern, or a UX problem you're stuck on. I'll give you an honest read on whether it's a quick fix or something bigger, and point you to the right next step. No pitch, no pressure.

Product & Website UX Audit

A structured audit of one product or website, evaluated for UX clarity, conversion friction, and accessibility gaps. You'll receive a written report ranking issues by impact, each with a recommended direction (not a full redesign). This is followed by a 30-minute live call to walk through findings and agree on next steps. Best for founders, product teams, or companies wanting an outside, expert read on a live product before a launch, redesign, or investor conversation.
