Investors decide whether to keep reading in the first thirty seconds. If your deck doesn't make the opportunity clear immediately, the meeting doesn't happen.
I design pitch decks for founders raising capital, venture funds presenting to LPs, and executive teams making the case to boards and institutional audiences. My work includes a Series A tech startup deck, LP presentations for two venture funds, an investment banking deck for a family office, and corporate strategy presentations for Fortune 1000 clients including Discover Financial and Aramark.
As a produced television writer, I structure every engagement around narrative before I touch a slide. Where is the argument soft? Where does the eye have nowhere to land? I fix those first, then build a visual system that holds through the full deck.
What you get at a flat fee agreed before I start:
• Narrative audit and slide sequence review
• Visual direction and three sample slides before the full build
• Full deck built on a consistent grid with clean typography and data visualization
• One revision pass and handoff files in your preferred format
I also design book interiors for KDP and IngramSpark, with publisher credits through Warner Books, Hachette, and Penguin. If that's what you need, it's in my portfolio.
Send me your deck or your raw copy and tell me where you are in the raise. I'll tell you what it needs.
