Aaron Wilson

Senior Experience Designer

Aaron Wilson is a Senior Experience Designer on the Build Team at Alloy Partners. His passion for product design and startup creation began during his time at Herron School of Art & Design, where he worked on a healthcare product focused on dementia care. This early experience ignited his interest in creating impactful solutions. After university, Aaron spent 3-4 years working on design for B2B and B2C SaaS startups with Design On Tap, honing his skills and gaining valuable industry experience.

In March 2020, Aaron joined Alloy Partners and, after a few years, transitioned to a High Alpha startup, Holder, to focus full-time on product design. There, he learned a great deal about designing new features, collaborating with customers, and working with a development team to refine the product. In March 2024, Aaron returned to Alloy Partners to continue his passion for creating startups.

Aaron finds great joy in the process of creating startups with a talented team, particularly during Sprint Weeks, which are a rush of excitement and an opportunity to dive into the magic of startup creation. These experiences motivate him to continuously improve his process, thinking, and product design.

Outside of work, Aaron is an avid pet parent to his dog, Banjo, and two cats, Sully and Boo. He enjoys music, whether playing one of his many instruments or listening to his vinyl collection. When he's not designing on his computer, Aaron enjoys leather-crafting, caring for his many plants, swimming, and tackling various projects around the house.

One of his proudest accomplishments is joining his high school swim team in his senior year and, by the end of the season, reaching the school’s record board and receiving an offer to swim at university. This achievement serves as a personal reminder of his dedication to both his hobbies and his career.
