Close enough to meet in person, senior enough to lead the work without you hiring in-house. Miner Thought works with Windsor-Essex businesses on brand, advertising, marketing strategy, and product design — direct access to senior-level thinking, scaled to fit what the project actually needs.
UX & UI Design for an HR Brand Culture Platform
Kingsville is about 40 minutes up the road — close enough for an in-person kickoff, a studio visit, or a meeting when that's what actually helps the work, not just a video call from somewhere else entirely.
Windsor runs on automotive, manufacturing, and engineering — and that's familiar ground. 20+ years of experience includes automotive software at the dealer and regional dealer-group level, plus advertising and design work — digital and direct mail — for dealers, dealer groups, service departments, and national OEMs, both agency-side and inside automotive SaaS companies.
Brand identity, advertising campaigns, marketing strategy, and product/UX design — scaled to what a Windsor-Essex business actually needs, whether that's a first campaign for a new business or senior creative leadership for an established one.
A designer staring at a blank page and finding the idea nobody's seen yet — a brand, a campaign line, an interface that finally makes sense — is still down to talent and instinct. That doesn't change, whether the work is a visual identity or a product.
Once that direction exists, AI helps us build it out faster and further: turning one identity into a full library of assets, one prototype into a tested, documented product, one concept into every size and format it needs to ship in. What used to take months can take weeks — the thinking isn't rushed, the production is.
Every AI-assisted deliverable gets reviewed and proofed by a person before it reaches you. It's a tool we use deliberately, not a replacement for craft — and not something we hide either.
