Find Designers page is built as a query surface, not a static list

The Find Designers page on ProfileScribe is structured as a SearchResultsPage with a SearchAction, which means it's built to be queried, not just browsed. Filtering runs on portfolio evidence, design specialty, public projects, current work, and location, so a search against the page is really a search against what a designer has shipped and where they're currently working, not a keyword match on a headline.
That distinction matters for anyone relying on discovery to be found for real work: a directory that only lists names rewards whoever writes the best bio, while one built around evidence and current activity rewards people whose public projects actually back up the claim. It's a small structural choice, but it changes what "searchable" means for a designer's profile.
