Presentations for
companies whose ideas
are hard to explain

Executive presentations, investor narratives and visual storytelling for companies with complicated things to say.

Selected work

Due to NDAs I've signed with previous clients and employers, none of the decks below are narratives I've actually created on their behalf. They're original samples—copy and design both built from scratch—meant to demonstrate the range and quality of work I can produce for a targeted presentation. Real client work is here.

About

I'm Matthew Ehrlich, a presentation designer in New York. I work on the decks that decide something—the funding round, the partnership, the launch, the results a room has been waiting eighteen months to hear.

I have a background in graphic design and three years as Creative and Communications Lead for the Devices and Creativity team at Microsoft.

I use AI because it makes me faster, more exploratory, and more ambitious. It helps me generate ideas, test directions, build imagery, and get to strong possibilities quickly. But AI is a starting point, not the finished work. I refine every deck by hand—shaping the story, editing the language, adjusting the composition, and making the hundreds of small visual decisions that turn a generated draft into something considered, distinctive, and beautiful. AI brings speed. I bring the eye, the taste, and the judgment.
