Hands-on support
A staff product designer with 10+ years of experience, specializing in complex B2B SaaS, design systems, and platform work. Over the years, this experience has translated into better cross-functional collaboration, clearer product strategy, and measurable impact on usability and business outcomes.
As a mentor, my focus is on thoughtful, strategic designers who want to level up from “doing the work” to leading it. Whether that means moving from mid to senior, or senior to staff. Mentees who benefit most are those who want to improve their craft, portfolios, storytelling, and case studies, and who want practical feedback on real work.
Sessions go beyond surface level critique. Together, we'll break down problems, clarify impact, and shape narratives that resonate with hiring managers and leadership. Expect direct, actionable feedback, concrete examples, and a focus on building confidence through clarity, not vague advice.
If you are ready to sharpen your portfolio, prepare for design interviews, or grow into a more strategic product designer within your current role, lets chat about your goals and see if this might be a good fit. From there, a plan is created for targeted sessions that help you move faster toward the next step in your career.
5 out of 5 stars
Zac gave very thoughtful and practical feedback on my UX portfolio. He quickly spotted areas where my case study framing and impact could be stronger and offered concrete suggestions that I can immediately apply. What I appreciated most was his ability to look at the work from a hiring manager’s perspective. The session was extremely helpful and I look forward to continuing the mentorship.
