Canvas — drivecanvas.com (acquired in 2019) was an all inclusive month-to-month car subscription service. Not quite a lease and not quite a rental – we were somewhere in between.

All vehicles came with comprehensive insurance, an extended warranty, routine maintenance, and 24/7 emergency roadside assistance.

My Role

My Role

I joined as a Product Designer and 6-weeks later we launched our MVP.

I led end-to-end design across the product and continued to grow and iterate the product up until our acquisition. The product surface area included a fully responsive web app, an iOS phone and tablet application, and a desktop based fleet management tool.

In addition to product design, I contributed to strategy, conducted user research, facilitated workshops, established org processes, hired, mentored, and led several cultural initiatives.
