Equity in Design
You ever had an idea, but didn't have
funds
or
a
creative team
to bring it to life?
I created 'design funds' for people with ideas, funded by people who want others to thrive. Think 'kickstarter' but for branding and etc.
I believe that collaboration makes our ideas stronger.
How it works:
- We find people who have amazing ideas.
- We build a campaign to crowdfund for design fees.
- CLients get funded.
- We get to work bringing their ideas to life.
Applications are open.

The world's hardest problems are solvable at the intersection of
human-centered AI and
socially impactful design.
Diamond E. Harris is a designer, strategist, community advocate, and honestly, a bit of everything in between.
She helps people like you turn those "what if" conversations into something real. She believes every person is a problem-solver and every problem can be solved by design. She also believes AI, used with care, can make some resources more accessible to many.
Design is not a luxury.
Design is an accessible
tool
for
liberation—
We've used it throughout
history to develop our ideas.
Selected
Impactful Work
The projects you're looking at come from people who decided:
- To not do good work in the shadows.
- To design systems that serve people.
- To be clear about what they offer.
- To not believe in barriers.
AI doesn't control us.
We control it.
People first, always. Every project starts with a conversation, not a prompt.
Transparent by default. We tell you where AI was used. No surprises.
Responsible use. Your files and ideas never train anyone's model.
Savings, passed on. A faster workflow keeps our sliding scale and design funds possible.
Ideation is only the beginning.
Individual Services
I have logo ideas for my business.
I really need a website ASAP.
I need something created for an event.

We meet up (coffee, Zoom—your pick), and I ask the questions that matter. Who are you trying to reach? What keeps you up at night? This conversation lays the foundation for what we create.
Design Consult.
This is where it gets fun. We sketch, we talk through ideas,
I might throw out some wild concepts. You react, we build on it, we scrap what doesn't work. This is how good ideas develop.
We Brainstorm.
The Work Begins.
Now I take everything we talked about and actually build it.
Logo, website, social content—whatever you need. I'm thinking about how it looks AND how it actually works in real life.
We Iterate.
You see what I've done. You give feedback. I refine. We go back and forth until it feels right. This usually is the best part of the process. It's where honesty meets vulnerability.
Everything is organized and ready for you. If you need help launching it or have questions later, I'm still here—this isn't a farewell. This is more like-- "see you later".
You're Good to Go.
Who i work with
Supporting companies as they prepare for their next stage
Founder-Led Companies
Founder-led companies often move fast and rely heavily on instinct and vision. As the organization grows, founders can find themselves pulled in too many directions. I help founders build the structures, leadership alignment, and decision frameworks that allow the company to scale without losing its original momentum.
Growth-Stage Companies
As companies grow, so does complexity. Priorities compete, teams expand, and execution slows. I help leadership teams restore clarity and structure so the business can scale sustainably.
Leadership Teams Facing Challenges
As organizations evolve, leadership teams often struggle with unclear priorities, misalignment, and slower decision-making. I work with executive teams to clarify roles, strengthen collaboration, and create operating rhythms that restore focus and drive effective execution.
Businesses Preparing for the Next Stage
As companies move into their next phase, growth brings new challenges. Greater complexity, harder decisions, and the need for stronger alignment. I work with leadership teams to clarify priorities, improve how the business runs, and build the structure needed to support the next stage.
At Aureon Consulting, every engagement is designed to create measurable business progress while maintaining the highest standards of trust and confidentiality. I work closely with leadership teams to ensure strategy, operations, and execution remain aligned as companies grow.
Get in Touch
You Know That Neighbor Who Can Just... Do Things?
Yeah, that's kind of me. Over the years, I've picked up design, branding, strategy, websites, campaigns—basically, I've got my hands in creative everything. The real talk? I genuinely love helping people bring their ideas to life. It doesn't matter if you're still figuring it out or already crushing it—I just want to help.
“Daniel helped us bring clarity to a leadership team that was struggling with too many competing priorities. Within a few weeks, we had a clear strategic direction and a structure for execution that the entire company could align around.”
Michael Turner
CEO, Northbridge Technologies
“Working with Daniel introduced a level of discipline to our operations that we simply didn’t have before. His approach is structured, thoughtful, and focused on outcomes. The changes we implemented are still shaping how we run the business today.”
Laura Bennett
Founder, Bennett Advisory Group
I don't know what I want. Is that okay?
Totally normal. That's why we talk through it first—that's why I'm here to help .
I need things to move along quickly-- Is that possible?
Logo? 2-3 weeks.
Full brand? 6-8 weeks.
Website? 4-6 weeks.
Print Design? 1 week
Truly, just depends on how quick you are with feedback and how much you've explored to be decisive about what you want.
How much does it cost?
Depends on the project. Let's talk about what you need and your budget, and I'll tell you what's possible. My typical rate is $125/hour, but I offer a 'sliding scale'.
What if I hate it?
We talk about why and fix it. It's your brand, we respect your vision.
Logo vs. branding — what's the difference?
Logos are like furniture: they can be updated to match design trends. They're changeable. Branding is the whole house: a foundational, enduring essence. It evolves but has timeless quality. Branding includes color, typography, communication, customer service, and website experience.
Do I really need a brand if I'm just starting?
If you want people to take you seriously or buy from you, yes. You've got about 2 seconds to make a good impression.
What do I get when we're done?
Everything you need to actually use it. Files, training, guidelines. Whatever makes it usable for you. I'm always an email or call away if you have questions later. Don't hesitate to drop me a message.
Do you use AI? Will my brand look AI-generated?
Yes, I use AI, and no, it won't look generated. AI helps me research, explore ideas and move faster, which keeps costs down. Your brand is shaped by our conversations, your feedback and my judgment. I'll always tell you where AI was used.
