Motif was acquired January of 2025.

As the founding designer at Motif I was responsible for leading projects across the entire design lifecycle, including supporting lead generation through building our brand and marketing, educating and activating our current user base through content and outreach, designing a powerful and intuitive user experience for expert users, and finally to facilitating the feedback loop from our prospects and customers through user research.

Nearly every inch of what you see and interact with in our marketing and product experience is my fault err responsibility (the double-edged sword of being a founding designer).
