    Not every project goes the way you plan. When we were working with @contra we took a MAJOR swing on round one and missed! We listened and bounced back with the brand you see today. Want to see what starting over looks like? Here's the whole file. figma.com/design/Qo64brw…

    Brief pause to hype up my husband, a product designer at @themindcompany. Their launch with @Goodside_Studio yesterday was stunning. 2 designers with 2 kids and 2 big launches this week. YA'LL 😅

    *New work* Meet @themindcompany, mental fitness for all. We worked with the team behind @elevateapp & @balanceapp, to create a parent brand name, strategy, visual identity and voice. @daniellelaroy and I loved building this brand at @Goodside_Studio. → goodside.studio/work/the-mind-…

    It was a dream to work with @Smith_Diction on a brand refresh earlier this year. With today’s launch, the strategy + brand + product all come together. @contra is now a true network for creativity.

    Replying to @jstrelioff
    I went immediately to @milkjuus to see! Jess has been killing it on @diabrowser design lately. Looks like it was Caleb Vanden Boom

    It's a privilege to build a product and brand that I wish existed when I was independent. Finally there's a platform that supports independent and flexible work, commission-free. So you can keep doing what you love.

    The @contra team is listening. We know you want into the community. We're rolling out a completely new way to get in, very very soon (like next week soon): our first creative hackathon. I'm so excited to be a judge, alongside some greats @Will_Paterson10 @jameygannon

    I learned so much working in-house at Huge and Red Antler + freelancing with agencies as an independent designer. I’ve seen what works & what doesn’t. Now @contra we're seeing agencies get more sophisticated in how they work with freelancers — check it out contra.com/flexible-hirin…

    Earlier this year we got a call from @contra asking if we'd help out with their visual identity. We were like, "Your brand is pretty dope as is. I don't think you need us." Once we talked to @contraben & @erinnhorner I was hooked. I needed to be a part of this. So we got to work.

    While we know the use of AI can sometimes be polarizing for creatives, I’m really proud of the fact that at @contra we've built an AI powered tool that is solely focused on lifting up creative talent. Indy finds new opportunities on autopilot, so you can do literally anything
