ABOUT LIGHTFORGE

LightForge LLC was born from a passion for bringing clarity to bold, unique ideas. Too often, great concepts get lost in complexity and poor communication. We refine and shape ideas into clear, compelling solutions that make an impact.

 

Darin is a product and brand design leader with over 35 years of experience designing for consumer brands and digital products. A former P&G design leader, Darin led the company’s global UX/UI practice for IT and led global design programs for brands like Crest, Vicks, Iams and Gillette.

 

He is known for shaping clear, innovative user-centered experiences and strategies through early product envisioning, concept development and hands-on design execution. With deep expertise in UX, design strategy, and innovation, he brings a collaborative and flexible approach to solving complex challenges and helping teams bring great products to life.
