Clear package rates with no billable hours. You know the full cost before the project starts.
MVPs and prototypes in days or weeks — not the months-long timelines agencies quote.
31+ years of experience on every project — you talk directly to the designer, not an account manager.
Start with a prototype, add a design system, scale to a full app — one designer who knows your product.
Every deliverable includes annotated specs, assets, and a Figma file developers can build from directly.
Need custom work outside a package? I offer hourly design for UI iterations, additional screens, prototype revisions, design reviews, and component work. No minimum engagement — just book what you need.
Common questions about product and interaction design projects.
All design and prototyping work is delivered in Figma — the industry standard for UI design and interactive prototyping. You'll receive a shared Figma file, a shareable prototype link, and exported assets in any format your developers need.
Yes. The User Testing Prototype package is specifically designed to be task-flow optimized for usability sessions — including multiple user paths, realistic transitions, and presentation mode. It works directly with tools like Maze, Useberry, and UserTesting.com.
User Testing prototypes are built for breadth — covering multiple flows and edge cases so participants can explore realistically. Investor Demo prototypes are built for depth and polish — a single, beautifully choreographed hero narrative that impresses in a pitch setting. Both are high-fidelity, but the goals and structure differ.
Yes — all packages include responsive design for both desktop and mobile. If your app requires tablet layouts, those can be added to any package. The complexity of multi-platform design is already factored into the package pricing.
Absolutely. If you have brand guidelines, an existing design system, or a partially-built Figma file, I'll work within those constraints. Extending an existing system is often faster than building from scratch, which may reduce the project cost.
A project brief covering: what your product does, who the primary user is, what flows need to be designed, any existing screens or style references, and your deadline or demo date. The more context you share upfront, the closer the first round will be to your vision.
Yes — I work with clients nationwide. All projects are handled remotely via email, video call, and shared Figma links. Being local is never a requirement.
Whether you need an MVP prototype in a week or a full app design system, let's talk. Free consultation — no commitment required. Based in Asheboro, NC, serving clients nationwide.
