Silicon Valley product designer with 14 years of making ideas real, blending the magic of digital with the grit of the physical world.
Hey – I’m Xander Pollock. I build things. Sometimes they're apps that land in millions of pockets. Sometimes they're entire clinics or a corner of a hardware store. I like taking fuzzy ideas, wrangling them into wireframes, prototypes, and real-world stuff people actually use and love.
SELECTED CLIENTS
The House Fund — Visiting Partner, Head of AI Accelerator
Helped early-stage AI founders turn "what if?" into "it's shipping!" by running hands-on labs, prototyping wild ideas, and showing how emerging AI can power up operations and create brand-new experiences.
BibleProject — Product Lead
Led the charge to launch BibleProject's first app. 1 million downloads, $1 million ARR, and a whole lot of late-night wireframing, prototyping, and collaborating with an incredible design and engineering crew.
Independent Consultant
Partnered up with folks like Google, Harvard, Adobe, Fitbit, Cisco, Abbott, Twitter, and a bunch more. Dreamed up and built everything from apps to full-scale physical prototypes—including a tricked-out hardware store and a medical clinic. Also moonlighted as a guest lecturer at Harvard Business School and shared what I know on stages at Google, Stanford, and Adobe.
Google
Helped design Inbox by Gmail. Sketched, tested, iterated, designed across Android, iOS, and Web. Before that worked on the Google Maps team to build scheduling and service tools for real-world businesses navigating the digital frontier.
Punchd (Acquired by Google)
Co-founded a startup that made loyalty cards a thing of the past. Designed the app *and* the in-store setup kits that made customers smile. Google liked it enough to acquire us us.
