Context

In addition to being a VC firm, NFX is a "tech company" founded by entrepreneurs to transform the venture capital industry. As the first in-house and lead UX Designer, I worked directly with one of the firm’s partners, creating technology* that supports:

  • Sourcing and evaluating companies
  • Helping founders cut through noise
  • Managing relationships and investments

*With NFX’s confidentiality in mind, the design samples shown are a small subset of my work with the firm.
