In our first year, Public Servants focused on building quietly alongside public teams. This reflection looks back on the work, the lessons, and the foundations that shaped our approach to public-centered design in 2025.

Policies are more than legal documents—they’re cultural artifacts. At Public Servants, we design ours as promises: rooted in trust, care, and accountability, and built to grow with the people they serve.

I started Public Servants LLC to help reimagine how public systems serve people—with care, clarity, and the courage to do things differently.

Public servants are more than job titles, they're the people who keep public systems working with care and commitment. In this post, we define the term and reclaim its meaning for today.

Not all public service should be celebrated. In this post, we share what we mean by public service—acknowledging past harms while standing with those who show up to build care-centered, community-rooted systems for the future.

Public systems aren’t just outdated—they were never built for the future we need. Here’s what we’re doing to reimagine public work from the inside out.

Public Servants LLC isn’t just the name of our consultancy—it’s a statement of purpose. A call-in. A commitment.
