From Uber to Apple to new design founder 💡

If I told you someone had a background as a senior designer at companies like Uber, Dropbox, Apple, and Patreon then you'd be pretty impressed, right?

Same.

But Adam Noffsinger walked away from all of that to start Alma (which you might remember from the Smith+Diction episode).

So this episode is a deep dive into what it really looks like to go 0→1 as a design founder.

Adam even walks us through his Figma file for Alma so if you’re interesting in startups or designing something from nothing, then I think you’ll really enjoy this conversation 👇
