About L. Franklin Gilliam

I’m a maker and strategist. I specialize in imagining future possibilities—products, programs and experiences—to grow impact and reach goals. I use inclusive and human-centered design methods because I’ve seen firsthand that radical candor and creative freedom create better, more resilient solutions. I credit my training as an artist and designer for both my willingness to embrace the unknown and my ability to balance complexity and illustrate the big picture. It’s been my pleasure to bring this expertise to a number of social enterprise nonprofits such as Girls Who Code, Institute of Play, Mozilla, and Out in Tech.
