Hi, I’m Briana.
I’m a designer and product leader for tech that matters – currently leveraging multimodal AI to unlock visual content at Coactive.
Most recently, I led product and design at Formally, building our brand, team, and product from the ground up.
Formally is a legal tech startup transforming legal collaboration and data — all starting with immigration. As a founding team member and Head of Product and Design, I grew the team and product from square one.
Before that, I helped small businesses prosper as a product designer at Intuit QuickBooks.
As the hybrid interaction and visual designer on the payroll tax capability, I worked closely with developers, and PMs to champion the people experience for tax setup, tax payments, and pay history.
Some of the product design and branding work I’ve had the most fun with has been done with my favorite collaborator – Leona Das.
My sister and I worked together as design partners at Nebula Consulting and on freelance projects. Stay tuned for the launch of our studio, bringing scalable branding and product to early, mission-driven startup teams.

Education design and curriculum innovation at Brown University.
As one of the founders and leaders of the student group Design@Brown, I championed design education within liberal arts. Our team crafted a report and call to action on the state of design education at Brown and presented our findings to the administration including the Department of Engineering. Three years later, and design engineering is now a standard course of study and the introductory course I helped design enrolls over 300 students.
