Ongoing design support 

for startups & in-house teams

I partner with teams on flexible monthly retainers, providing reliable, high-quality design support without the commitment of a full-time hire.

Animation

Light animation and motion design to add personality and visual interest — perfect for email headers, social content, and paid or organic campaigns.

Branding

From light brand refreshes to post-rebrand rollout, I help translate your brand across every touchpoint — including social templates, email design, web pages, and marketing assets.

Web design

I design, refine, and build web pages and landing pages — whether iterating on what’s already there or starting fresh.

UX/UI design

With experience collaborating alongside product teams, I bring a strong visual and brand lens to UX and UI projects — from refining flows to adding polish and clarity.

Marketing design

Ongoing support for digital and print needs, including social content, paid ads, email templates, landing pages, presentations, one-pagers, launch assets, and more.

How retainers work

My retainer packages are designed to give you ongoing design support in a way that’s flexible, efficient, and cost-effective.

Clients typically work with me for anywhere from 10–40 hours per month, depending on their needs. Some teams partner with me for a few months to tackle a specific initiative, while others have worked with me for years as their go-to design support.

You don’t need a full-time designer just yet, but you do need consistent, reliable support

You’re a small startup scaling up and ready to move beyond DIY design

A member of your team is on parental leave and you need temporary design support
