About

Ciao! I'm PG and I make cool sh*t for the web 📱💻 That includes designing and building products, websites, educational content, and more!

Projects

2021

Koble is a Toronto-based startup that is shaking up post-partum care.
Being a new parent is tough. It can be isolating, scary, and stressful. Post-partum depression numbers are skyrocketing, the pandemic isn’t helping. Parents need some sense of belonging.
Koble saw a need and asked us to help them come up with a solution. Their ask: create a digital community to help new parents feel safe and supported.
Working on the assumption that today’s digital communities are broken, we sought to create a space that fostered psychological safety.

I was the lead designer and front end developer on this project which I designed in Figma and helped build with VueJS and Electron Webpack.
