What it’s like to work with us
“Sam stepped into true 0 to 1 work and immediately became central to our discovery process. She moves quickly, tests hypotheses fast, and brings a strong bias for action to ambiguous problems. She takes real ownership, operates with high agency, and works independently without losing alignment. Just super easy to work with and focused on high-impact work that moves the project forward.”

Hisham Elaraby, Founder @ Sovrin
Previously Udacity, Google, McKinsey
“Working with Sam was one of the most collaborative Designer-PM partnerships I’ve had. She brought strong user empathy and product intuition, challenged thinking in constructive ways, and helped shape product strategy beyond design execution. She was thoughtful, proactive, communicative, and made complex problems feel solvable. Sam is exactly the kind of designer that early-stage teams need!”

Kristina Wang, Product @ Atlassian
Previously Noom, Wish, Docusign
"Sam grounds design decisions in user research, forming clear hypotheses and validating them fast. She understands business constraints, moves fast, and ships. She's also an excellent communicator, which mattered a lot given the team was fully remote. Not every designer can operate in an early-stage environment with that level of intentionality and speed, but Sam does."

Nourhan Shaaban, Founder @ Mash
Previously Noom, Udacity, Google
“Sam operated with both speed and sound judgment. In our fast-moving environment, she could take loosely defined ideas and turn them into tangible tests. She adapted thoughtfully as insights came in and helped us move quickly without losing clarity. Thoughtful, collaborative, and honestly just great to work with.”
