02 — Engagement

The engagement

Rhythm — collaboration
Discovery
Kickoff · week 1

I run a structured session to dig into your product, users, and industry. This gives me the context I need to understand your goals and move the needle on design decisions.

Weekly check-ins
Recurring ritual

I run a weekly, recurring session to walk through design feedback and what's next.

Working sessions
As needed

Some stretches of an engagement need more back-and-forth. I hop on Slack huddles and ad-hoc calls throughout the week so things stay aligned.

Deliverables — what you take away
High-fidelity design
Deliverable · 01

Wireframes through to polished screens, built on a consistent component system with annotated end-to-end flows so engineers can pick them up without friction.

Prototypes
Deliverable · 02

Interactive versions of lo-fi or hi-fi designs, so you can validate product decisions in front of customers before committing.

MVPs & early versions
Deliverable · 03

Working versions of end-to-end products built using tools like Claude Code, with real data and real APIs. Not ready to scale, but enough to test, pitch, and learn from.
