Big-picture strategy. Hands-on design. One-stop shop.

I’m Justin, an independent designer working across brand, web, and communications. I make identities, websites, reports, infographics, campaigns, and plenty of things that don’t fit neatly into a category. Much of my career has been spent helping nonprofits, technology companies, and public-sector teams make their work look as thoughtful and capable as the people behind it.

    Case Study

“Having worked with Justin since 2013 on nonprofit marketing and messaging, when I decided to found a venture-backed startup, I knew he was the very first person to recruit. Justin took on all aspects of HData's first public presence, from design to user experience to CRM to the words we carefully chose. His hard work and creativity secured HData's initial customer base and our Seed capital raise”
