I am an experienced and energetic Product Designer with over 7 years of experience in the design and code space. I have a passion for Design Systems and accessibility, which inspires and encourages me daily to do awesome work. Throughout my career, I have played a key role in designing and building great products, focusing on collaboration, attention to detail, and industry best practices.
As a design system specialist, I have worked as a contractor, utilizing tools like Figma to ideate, prototype, and iterate website designs based on client requirements. I have also worked on multiple design systems, including a multi-brand design system, where I created a token-based design system using Token Studio. This resulted in a 30% decrease in UI development time for future product lines while ensuring consistent branding across multi-brand portfolios. I have also authored comprehensive documentation for design systems and collaborated with other designers, developers, and product managers to implement proper visual audits, heuristic evaluations, and accessibility audits.
In my previous role as a Product Design Specialist at Maya Philippines Inc, I focused on visual and UI design. I designed features to allow users to send and receive crypto and created a mini app for investment offerings. I also collaborated on the design system and led an initiative that fixed 90% of the existing UI bugs across the crypto offering. Additionally, I have experience in design systems maintenance and mentoring, having worked as a Design System Consultant at Yoco. In this role, I created the roadmap for the design system, brought component parity up to 95% between the existing code base and Figma, and introduced semantic tokens and new key metrics to measure component usage across code and design.
