Before you start building a design system in Figma.. make a map! 20min of planning now will save you many headaches down the road. I promise! Here are 3 questions to ask yourself as you plan..

I still think the best hire any team can have is a really strong, creative UX designer that CAN design some UI too but known for their superior UX skills. Not an Amazon/Microsoft style UI, but something closer to Apple or Stripe. This designer is irreplaceable.

You know how I'm CONSTANTLY talking about normalizing accessibility coverage? Let's take a look at TLOU Remaster as the perfect example. A video released by ND revealed that the game will have fully integrated audio descriptive cut scenes, the first in ANY AAA game. (1/2)

Reminder that accessibility is not a privilege, it's the minimum.

Team Disabled: I'm giving talk about being a disabled and why everyone should care about accessibility. I would ♥️ to include your voices/experiences, too. As a disabled user I am often frustrated/blocked navigating digital space. What is your biggest blocker/struggle? #a11y

I offer free mentorship to designers from underrepresented groups for years now. If you want some support, good chat and a 3rd opinion let me know. I'll open some room for new mentees soon and may DM you back.

If you offer "monthly pricing (billed annually)", you offer annual pricing.

Google search results for 16 “top UX designers” is not diverse. The one intersectionally diverse designer, @ireneau, doesn’t even have a photo. The UX industry, and Google, can do better! Join me in making this list more diverse by using the “Feedback” button at the bottom.

I get asked all the time if API or Platform teams need UX. UX stands for user experience, not user interface design. I've been doing a lot of coding lately to integrate the different tools that I use, and I can assure you, your API teams needs UX.

If you think research is expensive or it takes a long time, just wait til you see what it’s like building products without it.

Honestly UX copy writing is not easy and learning how to do it well can put food on your table.

Are their any “famous” women in UX? The level of Don Norman, Luke W, Alan Cooper, and Jared Spool? Where you say their names to other UXers and they know who you’re talking about?
