Career coaching for designers
Designers are unique: we can look at a huge problem and solve it with tiny pixels. Despite our superpowers, obstacles pop up–especially at work–that can limit our potential. After experiencing this first-hand for years as an in-house designer on teams large and small, I started coaching others to help them navigate corporate culture.
Who I work with
Recent Graduates
Campus rules no longer apply in the office, and making this transition can be jarring and uncomfortable without a map to navigate the corporate landscape.
In-House Designers
Feeling a bit out of place in your cubicle? Designers embedded in private (or public) companies face different challenges than our agency fellows.
Freelance Designers
Heading out on your own requires an expanded toolkit of skills that include project management, organization, communication, business, and, everyone’s favorite, filing taxes.
A coach helps you clarify your goals, identify obstacles, and chart a path forward.
