Work with me

Mentoring

One-to-one guidance for graduates and early-career designers who want more than advice. They want a plan that actually works.

Whether you’re trying to land your first role, work out where to take your career, or just want someone with real industry experience in your corner, this is built around what you actually need.

How it works

01

First conversation

We start with a free 20-minute call to understand where you are, what you want, and whether we're a good fit.

02

Regular sessions

Regular video calls built around your goals: career direction, applications, portfolios, interviews, how to read a room when you get there.

03

Practical support

Between sessions I'm available for quick questions, feedback on applications, and honest input when you need it.
