Hi, I’m David Toobe, a product designer with a background in architecture. I turn ambiguous visions into investor-ready products, designing scalable information architectures and robust design systems that help startups grow and win. I’ve built dashboards, data visualizations, and end-to-end experiences for data-heavy platforms, delivering fast, user-friendly interfaces that unlock actionable insights. I thrive balancing business goals, user needs, and technical realities. I’m comfortable moving fast, stripping away low-value features, and delivering demo-ready prototypes. I enjoy collaborating with product managers, engineers, and leadership to align strategy with execution and drive measurable results.
