The real challenges in
today's design landscape.
The job search is broken. Cold applications rarely get replies anymore.
Career growth feels unclear. You want to level up—but don’t know what matters most.
Sounds like me!
Side income feels out of reach. You have skills, but not the system to turn them into income.

Hey, I'm Chris,
Hey, I'm Chris,
I’ve been there too.
I’ve been there too.
I’ve spent 12+ years leading product design teams in startups and SaaS companies—and coached dozens of designers through job changes, pivots, and growth.
Now I help designers future-proof their careers through async coaching, live sessions, and systems that actually get results.
I’ve seen what’s changed: talented designers getting ghosted, bootcamp grads left without a plan, and AI pushing the bar higher for mid-level folks trying to grow.
That’s why I built The Design Co—to give designers the guidance, feedback, and direction they should’ve had all along.
The system may be flawed, but your skills aren’t.
