(The ones making real impact)
Our approach combines strategic thinking with social impact design to advance missions that matter.
After twelve years of contributing to and leading design teams across the San Francisco Bay Area, I founded Acton Circle to focus entirely on amplifying social good.
The namesake of my studio, Acton Circle, was the location of my grandparents' home—a place where my faith and creativity began.
I am part of their legacy, and I can't wait to help you build yours.
💖 Olivia Wheeler, Founder and Chief Design Lead, Acton Circle
Olivia makes collaboration feel easy; she’s flexible and adapts well to project changes. Olivia joined a project midway and picked up as though she was part of the team since the beginning.
Olivia is sharp and thoughtful in taking initiative to offer new design ideas that’ll enhance the user's experience. Olivia helped visually communicate tough concepts into a friendly and approachable experience for our users.”
