# Devo - Devon Frohne > AI-Native Design Leader and Advisor. Specializing in natural AI interactions that bring humanity to voice, text, and novel interfaces. Location: San Francisco, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/devo I see Design as a table stakes part of any innovative business. I'm passionate about using simple stories to guide design in solving today's complex problems. I thrive when there’s a blank sheet of paper in front of me and am comfortable leading a team with a vision. As a multidisciplinary designer, I stop at nothing to use every tool in my tool belt to get the job done. I'm constantly on the lookout for new tools that improve my work as an IC and as a teammate. My design process is flexible depending on the team, project and scope. I help to refine, design and implement new processes across various teams in order to optimize time and flow. I enjoy working with multidisciplinary teams who have a forward-thinking and communicative process. Showing & Telling is where I thrive. I’m a 6 time startup team member who excel’s in the innovation space at the intersection of Software, Hardware and Content. Let's create the next big thing together. - Devo ## Work Experience ### Product Designer – Fractional @ NextSense, Inc Jan 2025 – Present | San Francisco Bay Area ### Principal Design partner for early-stage startups @ Moon Missionº Jan 2023 – Present | California, United States ### Fractional Principal Product Designer @ DevonFrohne.com Jan 2023 – Present | San Francisco Bay Area Working with forward-thinking Founders & their teams to develop new digital products and connected experiences.
