Work

What is your hourly rate?

I charge based on the value and quality of what I deliver, not by the hour. That means I work on a fixed-price basis, so you don’t have to track time or worry about hours, just results. Once we agree on the scope and timeline, you can trust I’ll get it done, even if it means burning the midnight oil to make it happen.

What is your design process?

I believe good design starts with understanding your goals, your users, and what makes your brand unique. I typically start with a discovery phase to gather context, followed by research and brainstorming. From there, I sketch ideas, explore visual directions, and refine the concept into a final design that’s both functional and beautiful. I’ll check in regularly so we stay aligned and make sure the end result feels right for you and your users.

Will you do a paid test job?

I totally get wanting to see a small design sample before committing to a full project. That said, even a small section takes quite a bit of time when done properly (research, planning, sketching, establishing style, etc.), so I don’t take on unpaid test projects.

Instead, feel free to check out my case studies or client testimonials to get a feel for how I work.
