Design + Code
I believe in getting close to the end user through familiarity through the code that will paint the pixels they experience. Just like our design ancestors knew paper and ink and could work with printers, it’s important for me to speak the language of the engineers who bring design to life. I’m an HTML, CSS, and Javascript guy, and also have experience with React/NextJS, AstroJS, Twig, Laravel, Flutter, and SwiftUI.
Details
One of my early mentors encouraged me to take time making little “delicious details” throughout my work. Design systems are important for scale, but when done right they can also give designers time to really sweat the details. I create custom icons and illustrations and look for opportunities to make moments for users.
Putting it all together
Design is great when the team that does it is great. The edges of any discipline are fuzzy, so I like to work with stakeholders and teammates to find what works best for that group and time. I’ve worked to implement new remote processes across two continents during the pandemic, used design system implementations to increase functionality in two companies, and rolled out design QA processes that saved time for designers and engineers while improving design quality.
