Work with a designer who understands the reality of running and growing a business - it's hard. I'll help you use presentation design in a meaningful way to make your business more durable and profitable. I'm a presentation design and pitch deck specialist who thinks like an entrepreneur and marketer, not just a slide-maker. Before going independent, I spent years as Global Creative Director at Nextiva, a $450M B2B SaaS company, leading brand refreshes, product launches, and live events for 1,000+ attendees. That business background is baked into every deck I build, not just design polish. Notable things my presentations contributed to: • Helped raise $200M from Goldman Sachs • Launched a SaaS product live in front of 1,000 people • Launched a new app that hit 10K users in its first month What I build: • Investor decks, pitch decks, and sales decks in PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Keynote • Business presentations for boards, all-hands meetings, and client pitches • Strategic business documents: brochures, one-pagers, sell sheets • Copywriting and storytelling that makes the story land, not just look good This is a good fit if: • You have a strong idea or business but need help presenting it clearly • You want clean, professional design, not clutter or a template that looks like everyone else's • You're preparing for something that actually matters, like a raise, a board meeting, or a big sales pitch • You'd rather brief someone once and get it right than manage a design back-and-forth And when you're ready to go further, I also build the websites and brand systems that carry the same story past the deck, for the few clients who want one designer across their whole business. Send me a message, I'd love to learn about your business.
