head of brand & creative @useplumb ✽ typeface designer and lettering artist: https://t.co/kl6pBl6Tsg
Bay Area/Toronto
Joined January 2014
I just want to say I used *and* moved on from Instrument Serif for Plumb's brand before it became the default font for every AI brand. Switched to Calvino from @Zetafonts which is more humanist and readable at small sizes compared to Instrument Serif😇
If your consumer AI startup isn’t using this exact font, the vibes will be off and your fundraise will reflect that

I also realize I never actually got a chance to announce that I had become Head of Brand and Creative before @useplumb shut down 😅
New portfolio site is live :) https://t.co/RhojBNBvIv Since I don't share much of my non-type design work on here I designed it for discovery - I wanted it to feel like walking through a gallery with all of my work on display. Currently looking for new roles in brand!

Keya (@keyavadgama), our brand designer... What I'd steal: Keya has got TASTE. She brings thoughtfulness, care, and craft to *everything* she works on. She makes our brand *magic* and makes magic with our *brand*. She created totally different brand identities for at least

Keya creates beautiful work, and is fantastic to work with. Highly recommend her if you want to take your company branding to the next level.
Bittersweet news but yes @useplumb is shutting down🥲 will always be grateful that this team took a chance on a type designer finding her way in tech.❤️ Officially looking for my next brand design role, DMs open:

Keya is the most forward-thinking and thoughtful brand designer in the AI space I've come across. I'm very fortunate to have gotten to watch her work up close. She easily takes the crown for # of 🔥 emojis in our Slack. Just constant bangers. Do not miss your chance to work with

Went from brand designer to Head of Brand and Creative. Navigated a company pivot into AI in early 2023. Fell in love with brand strategy. Designed SO much merch. And did a surprising amount of lettering. Grateful to have had 4 years with the most thoughtful people.❤️

major life update: we are shutting down @useplumb after several years of hustling on agentic workflow automation, we have decided to hang it up what we got right: ✅ Agentic Workflows > Agents - determinism and the ability to debug still matter guys (even Open AI gets this

the positioning of "recipes" in comparison to "skills" (in Dia) is interesting from an AI adoption pov, curious to see which one catches or if another emerges
Better models are only half the story. Without better context, chatting with AI will always feel like you're chatting with a stranger. Introducing Recipes. Now you can run advanced prompts across the world's best context: your Granola notes. Make your own, or try one by experts

being vegetarian in north america****
If you weren't a vegetarian until like 2020 then you wouldn't get it. You used to have to order a disgusting garden burger with carrots and shit sticking out of the patty, and your friends would laugh at you as it completely disintegrated in your hands.

I definitely want to try different paper and colour combinations but I’m literally in love🥹 also excited to share what this illustration was commissioned for very soon🫢

Been working on something I’ve wanted FOREVER (make art prints to hang in my home) and I’m genuinely so happy with this first experiment. I designed a custom matte and printed one of my illustrations on hahnemüle paper.
