design-anthropologist, story architect, believer in the power of listening
Design isn't a silo—it's a lens. I study people and culture at a molecular level, running open-ended Story Flow sessions that source the insight-frameworks behind every narrative. The result is work that doesn't just look right—it resonates because it's rooted in something real.
I believe design is a lens, not a department. That motion and interactivity are fundamental, not embellishment. That the best brands come from understanding people—not just aesthetics. A great pitch deck doesn't just present information—it creates a feeling. And the gap between "looks professional" and "actually resonates" is where the real work happens.
In 2017, I cofounded Cut Thru to help innovators tell their stories. From startups to enterprises to venture capital, I've worked with deep tech, cleantech, energy infrastructure, and biotech founders to craft brands and presentations that impact and amplify.
A story design studio I cofounded—blending narrative strategy, insight frameworks, and high-craft visual design. We've helped clients raise over $835M+ through this work.
Visual narratives for founders building the future—from seed to series and beyond.
Strategic storytelling for organizations operating at scale—where the room and the stakes are biggest.
Identity and visual systems for funds investing in the future of energy, climate, and industry.
Identities built from the ground up—logos, messaging, visual systems—all rooted in research and cultural insight.
Story Flow is an insight-led discovery practice. Narrative architecture and visual craft compound across every surface where belief shifts — decks, sites, launches, the long tail of moments between.
Every project begins the same way: with listening. The best work comes from insight frameworks that reveal what matters, visual craft that earns attention, and a Story Design process that connects the two.
The Power of Story—an interactive methodology prototype built in Figma. This is the insight framework behind every project: research-driven, narrative-first.
Presentation design at the highest level—every slide earns attention through visual storytelling, data viz, and illustration.
