Hello friend or friend-to-be, you are reading an about page, which is very generous, so I'll try to keep this succinct
I'm Lucas Quan. I grew up in Los Gatos CA, have lived & worked in SF & NYC, and am now physically bouncing between the two while in a state of imbo school
Right now, I'm a growth-obsessed designer at Hard Launch. My job is to get the world (tech twitter) to root for startups the day they come out of stealth. This work spans launch strategy, brand identity, mountains of design collateral, and new growth loops. I'm also a Vanderbilt student.
This school year:
Summer 2026:
helped my brother Justin launch his company Tomo
got signed to the first 'music software label' to work on playful musical interfaces through A Vinyl Bar in Shibuya
Last school year:
Summer 2025:
product marketing at C/Side, a b2b browser security company as my first real foray into startups
Prior:
created independent design work that's reached over 20 million people
was a designer for Kanel Joseph, HipHopHeaven and many other creators and brands native to the internet
Current fixations include: music (all), people's custom LEGO builds, 2010's Bloomberg biz week magazines, Storage Wars, Guga Foods experiments, mountain goat videos, learning to cook Indian food from 1st principles, College Football, grid systems, coffee's effect on longevity, AI creative tools, finding stickers in the wild, #hopecore, et al.
If you're in search of friendship, or if you're great, I'd love to meet you
