About

Julie Topp

I have over ten years of experience as a designer. I've had the privilege of reaching millions of customers with my designs. I've even won some awards!

Currently, I am focused on helping small teams grow. As a freelance designer for various startups, I enjoy high collaboration with teams. Together, we solve design and business goals. Everything from full app redesigns, implementing design systems, to refining in-app branding.

On evenings and weekends you can find me paddle-boarding the San Francisco Bay or running in the trails.
