01 — About

Founder & CEO

JL

Designer, producer, and systems thinker. Rooted in New Mexico, working with creatives anywhere.

Creativity and technology colliding — from a small Santa Fe studio.

Saberdog LLC opened in 2019 on a plain belief: artists and independents deserve partners who treat their work as infrastructure, not just content. The first jobs were websites and identities for local makers. The work grew into merch, events, digital ownership, and software the studio ships under its own name.

Jefferson studied computer science at the University of New Mexico, with earlier study at Santa Fe Community College. Before the studio he was a UX designer at Streamlynx Communications — content, layout, sites, and audiovisual production — and he still keeps a public Behance under the Saberdog name, member since 2013. Adobe daily drivers: Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat.

The same person records. Clean but Descheveled (2017) is on Spotify, Apple Music, and Bandcamp — tracks include Emo Lobster, Seafood, and Market Dash. Video is on YouTube as J4SUN. Film credits sit beside the design work: best boy on Curse of the Black Lagoon (2018) and B camera plus editor on OffSet’s “The Gandalf Episode” (2019). The published Grok apps and the third-party record are gathered under Credits.

  • Inclusive by design

    Accessible experiences, more than one kind of voice, and tools that do not assume an expert.

  • Boundary-pushing craft

    Websites, synthesizers, games. If it helps someone ship ambitious work, it belongs in the studio.

  • Community first

    Physical and digital assets that make a real room stronger, not just a feed louder.

  1. 01

    Free consultation

    Listen first. Goals, audience, and constraints — no obligation and no pitch deck.

  2. 02

    Strategy & design

    A clear plan: identity, architecture, campaign, or a product roadmap.

  3. 03

    Build & launch

    Production-grade work. Access, performance, and real use are not optional.

  4. 04

    Support & iterate

    Stay after launch. Refine the platform instead of handing over a folder and vanishing.

03 — Skills

What the studio actually does.

Tools listed the way Jefferson publishes them: Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat, and Portfolio on the design side; code, cameras, and original products on the other. One practice, not a pile of unrelated services.

  • 01

    Identity & print

    Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat. Marks, guides, and merch-ready art that survives a print shop.

  • 02

    UX & web

    Responsive sites and layout systems. Content, structure, and the path from visitor to member.

  • 03

    Campaigns

    Brand awareness with a point of view. Social, sequence, and assets that sound like the client.

  • 04

    Picture & sound

    Camera, edit, and original instruments. Sets, series, and a bass synth that ships as an APK.

  • 05

    Games & play

    Surf’s Up and SaberdogCraft. Playable sketches treated as products, not pitch decks.

  • 06

    Platforms

    Maps, fleets, Forge, Aetheria, WolfOS. Tools people can own instead of rent.

  • 07

    Systems thinking

    Computer science at UNM, then studios. The brief, the build, and what happens after launch.

  • 08

    Access

    Type size, contrast, and reduced motion as defaults — not a checklist taped on at the end.
