Founder | UX Designer

What does it take to grow a product from 0 to a $1.2 billion valuation? Or a design team from 2 to 26 members? 🚀

Here's how I drive business growth. 👇

My name is Mitch Clements, and I specialize in product vision, strategy, storytelling, and building design teams to drive business results.

With a diverse career background as a developer, product manager, and designer, I bring a unique perspective as a Product Design Leader. This multidisciplinary skillset empowers me to unite cross-functional teams to transform ambitious visions into actionable, incremental strategies, taking products from 0 to 1 and driving business metrics.

I thrive in leading companies through exponential growth while simultaneously prioritizing profitability and innovation at an enterprise level. Currently serving as a Senior Product Design Manager at nCino, I collaborate closely with the leadership team to establish the product vision and strategy for our mortgage portfolio. Overseeing 22 cross-functional teams, our collective efforts impact 1 in 4 U.S. mortgage loans, serving over 10 million users.

Additionally, I am deeply passionate about fostering the design community. I regularly speak at design conferences, spearhead a product mentorship program connecting 500+ mentees with mentors, and regularly contribute to discussions here on LinkedIn (with a following of 30K+).

If you've made it this far, it's likely we share some common ground! Follow me on LinkedIn and learn more about my journey at mitchellclements.com. 👋

Can I tell you a secret? 🤫

During my career I've been a UI/UX Designer, Product Designer, and a UX Designer...

...and I did the exact same thing in all 3 roles.

My daily responsibilities never changed.

"But Product Designers focus on the holistic product"... really?

As a UX Designer, I always focused on the holistic user experience, information architecture, and user flows between experiences.

"You don't understand, Product Designers focus on the business needs."

Are you implying that UX Designers don't? 

Every day as a UX Designer I had to communicate the business value of design, regardless if my title said "Product" or not.

No company or organization has yet to consistently agree on a standard definition industry-wide. And with the rise of AI, layoffs, and roles merging, the overlap is only increasing more.

What about you? What are your thoughts?
