Design infrastructure for scaling B2B tech companies

Your product team is moving fast but your design hasn't kept up. I help Series A-C teams build the design systems that let product teams ship faster and the websites that earn trust with investors and enterprise buyers.

The Inflection Point

Most of my clients come to me at an inflection point. Maybe you just closed a round and your digital presence hasn't caught up to what you're actually building. Or your product team is moving fast but there's no design system holding things together, so every screen starts from scratch.

You need someone who can step in, understand the bigger picture, and build something your team will actually use for years. Not a deliverable that collects dust, but real infrastructure that scales with you.

Testimonials

  • Keara built our first real design system and gave us a foundation we could truly build on! It was exactly what we needed at that stage. She was great to work with (very communicative) and made the handoff incredibly easy.

    Joe Brown, CEO & Co-Founder
    SMB.co

  • Keara came in and built out design system foundations for a multi-surface product redesign in a really tight window. Her component work was clean, scalable, and accessible. She picked up the brand quickly and really understood how to translate it into a working system. Strong Figma chops, great instincts, asked the right questions early. She was easy to work with, adapted fast, and brought a steady energy to a fast-moving project. Would absolutely work with her again.

    Mars Tovar, Founder & Creative Director
    Gridhaus Studio

  • Keara was an outstanding partner for our website project. She quickly became part of the team: responsive, patient, and highly collaborative at every step. The website has been performing perfectly, and the small changes we need to make as things change for the company are super easy to implement.

    Clem Brown, President & COO
    Adronite

  • Working with Keara was a game-changer. She has that rare combination of design talent, creative intuition, and executional precision. We brought her into a fast-moving project with high expectations — and she exceeded every one of them.

    Brad Barton, Co-Founder
    NWPRT

  • Keara did a great job on our website and we're very pleased with the result. Our thoughts and concerns were listened to, and the project was delivered on time with professionalism!

About me

I care about the details. How something looks, how it works, and whether it actually helps people accomplish what they need to do. I specialize in the design infrastructure most teams can't build on their own: token architecture, multi-brand theming, component libraries that actually get adopted.

Based in Chicago. When I'm not working, you'll find me exploring new restaurants with my wife, playing softball, volunteering at my favorite local animal rescue, or working through my reading list. We share our home with a dog, two cats (and fish!) who are our best buds.
