ABOUT LIGHTFORGE

LightForge LLC was founded to transform big ideas into clear, impactful human-centered solutions. Too often, great concepts get lost in complexity, we help shape and refine them to deliver results.

 

Darin is a product and brand design leader with over 35 years of experience in consumer brands and digital products. As a former P&G design leader, he built the global UX/UI practice for IT and led design programs for Crest, Vicks, Iams, and Gillette.

 

Known for creating innovative, human-centered experiences and strategies, Darin excels in early product envisioning and concept development. With deep expertise in UX, design strategy, and innovation, he brings a collaborative, flexible approach to solving complex challenges and helping teams bring great products to life.
