Process

Building design systems fast, so you can build faster

I establish and extend design systems with accessible component design and development, design tokens, product design, and consulting.

Work

From Figma to React, tokens to components

Design system engagements have involved a variety of projects, from simple wireframing to complex React component integration.

Poe — End-to-end system of Figma components and variables, design token distribution with dark mode, and React components for Quora’s AI app.

Theme examples of inputs

Credit Karma — A CSS-variable driven multi-brand, multi-mode token implementation to inform their design strategy.

Token flow diagram

Eventbrite — Multiple design token naming approaches, research, documentation, and a distribution system using Style Dictionary and GitHub packages.

Full-page design of Zeet's website

Zeet — Custom Figma component library and redesign of user interface elements, patterns, primary pages, and user flows.

Clients

Partnering with young startups and well-known unicorns

I’ve been privileged to work with many notable tech companies, including long-established businesses and newly-funded startups.

  1. Created a custom web application that implemented their multi-mode, multi-brand design CSS variable token structure with live components.
  2. Extended the Marmalade Design System with balanced color palettes and design token strategies to support multi-mode, multi-brand UIs.
  3. Improved designer productivity by identifying opportunities and best practices for the design system and built Figma plugins to address workflow gaps.
  4. Full design system based on existing designs with Figma library, accessible React with TypeScript components, documentation, and a design token system.
  5. Founding member of four-person team building the Thumbprint design system with design, development, research, documentation, and evangelizing.
  6. Rapidly built a Figma library, corresponding React with TypeScript components, and a marketing site, along with developer guidance on best practices.

On design systems

After over a decade of building complex applications and user interfaces on design and development teams, I have thoughts.
