If you’re a freelance designer who can jump between decks, PDFs, web, and ads without losing your mind (or your spacing), Lightboard is built for you. This is for full-time freelancers who want steady, high-quality client work without the agency circus.

Send your resume + portfolio, and include “the worst time Illustrator (or Photoshop, Sketch, or MS Paint) crashed on you.” That’s their vibe check. Keep it short but specific.
