Private 1:1 Mentorship

Put real seniority in your corner.

For experienced designers who’ve outgrown generic advice.

Experienced designers are under more pressure and scrutiny than ever, and the higher you climb, the fewer people there are to think it through with. Sometimes you just need someone a few rungs ahead who’s been in the room, will be straight with you, and can help you find the way forward.

I help experienced designers zoom out, reframe what’s actually going on, and leave with a real plan. Whether that’s a portfolio that isn’t landing, a promotion case, a stakeholder mess, or working out your next move. Whatever you bring, we’ll work it out together.

I look forward to meeting you,

-Miranda

Martina

Lead Designer

As a design leader, Miranda's impact extends far beyond her craft; it's deeply rooted in her mentorship and communication.

"I personally benefited hugely from her leadership. I implemented her advice right away, which not only boosted my own confidence in leading design work but, more importantly, brought much-needed clarity to the designers I was overseeing. This is a perfect example of effective leadership."

Senior Designer

Miranda has supported me with making more of an impact within my product team and helped shape the way my product team and I work today.

As a result of this the quality of my team's output has improved significantly and the relationship between design and product supports healthy challenges.

Sr. Product Designer

This has allowed me to grow massively this year as a designer while learning from her experience and process.

I was taking on an enourmous project and Miranda was available to provide support and feedback on specific aspects I needed more guidance on. Especially in the early stages, and with the complexity of stakeholders she’s been more proactive in anticipating potential needs, so I could focus on the critical parts of the work.

Sessions built around what you actually need

Get pulled in earlier

Become one of the most strategic, trusted designers in your company, the one brought in before the decision’s made.

The promotion case

Build the evidence and the narrative so your next-level conversation is a formality, not a gamble.

Career strategy

Map your next move, the skills and positioning to get there, and an honest read on whether you’re closer than you think.

Stakeholder & org politics

Break down a complex political situation and find the tactics that actually move it.

High-stakes review prep

Walk into a performance review, a consequential design review, or a C-suite presentation prepared and steady.

Leading & growing your team

Coach your designers, scale your judgment, and raise the bar without burning yourself out.

Senior judgment, from someone who’s used it where it counts

13 years in product design, 9 in corporate design, working the strategic, high-stakes side: multi-year vision, exec alignment, and the rooms where investment and direction get decided. I’ve influenced multi-million dollar priority calls, upskilled design teams, and coached dozens of designers into senior and lead roles.

That range, doing the work and teaching it, means I can break down a tangled interpersonal, strategic, or political problem fast, and hand you an approachable plan you can act on this week.

Bring me your situation

How I work

Senior+ only. I work with experienced designers, leads, and design leaders. No fundamentals here, hence the price point. This is for people who are already good and want to be trusted with more.

Always actionable. Leave every session with resources and clear next steps. No vague encouragement, no overload on theory, practical ways forward.

Honest, always. I’ll tell you straight whether the blocker is you or the situation and have your back through it either way.

Prepared, not winging it. An intake form before we meet means we go straight to the substance.

Bring an agenda or bring the mess. Come with a tight question or a tangle you can't put your finger on. Both work.
