Craig Syverson is a 🏷️#designer and design generalist who works at the intersection of design, technology, and communications — across user experience, art direction, and media production. Based in Menlo Park, California, he is an alum of 📝Apple, where he was a senior UX designer, and of the design firm IDEO. For nearly two decades he ran his own practice, Syverson Labs, and he is currently co-founder and head of design at an early-stage startup.
His path also runs through 📝Stanford University, where he served on the faculty, along with user-experience work at Yahoo! and a stint authoring training courses for lynda.com. Earlier he was creative director for The Lobby Conference, reflecting a generalist's range across apps, websites, podcasts, presentations, and video. He studied at Pace University.
I was introduced to Craig by his step-daughter 📝Elle Allen in June 2026.
