Making the leap from design to business
summary
Designers already ship products and run businesses: built a prototype workflow with Composer, launched a tool called form that later is Form acquired by Google, experienced a personal email breach and founded a security product called password manager Uno that highlights a single-click login and a 100%‑height jumbo button which drives growth and attention, learns faster by shipping, uses AI and low‑code tools to execute, and treats design taste as the differentiator for product and business decisions.
