Building an Accessibility-First Component Library
This case study highlights the creation of an accessibility-first component library built with React and Radix Primitives. It was designed to address persistent WCAG violations and fragmented UI across platforms by embedding accessibility, semantic structure, and design-code parity into every layer. The system uses design tokens, Storybook documentation, and Figma Dev Mode integration to enable inclusive, scalable development across teams.
How I Lead Design Systems Teams: Feedback, Ownership, and Scaling Trust
This article shares how I lead design systems teams through structured critique, contribution workflows, and data-informed feedback. It's a look at how I scale trust through clarity and collaboration, not control.
MCP: Token Aware AI Workflows for Scalable UI
I built a token-aware AI workflow that integrates design system context into component generation using MCP, ChatGPT, and Cursor. This system turns prompts into production-ready UI—theme-aware, brand-compliant, and fully synced with Figma and code.
a11y 2025: Embedding Accessibility into System Infrastructure
I led a system-wide initiative to embed WCAG 2.2 and EAA compliance into our design system—not as an afterthought, but as foundational infrastructure. Through training, component refactoring, and cross-functional alignment, we standardized tap targets, focus states, keyboard navigation, and ARIA roles across all components. This shifted accessibility from reactive to systemic, enabling audit readiness and building long-term trust across design and engineering.
Turning Assumptions Into Insights
How a custom dashboard reshaped strategy, trust, and visibility across 48+ brands.
The System Beneath the System: Re-Architecting Tokens for 48+ Brands
Redesigned our token architecture from raw values to a governed system of primitives, aliases, and themes—powering live theming and design–code sync at scale.
Scaling Design Infrastructure Across 48 Brands
Orchestrated the rebuild of a multi-brand design system from the ground up—driving cross-org alignment, implementing token architecture, and embedding Figma Variables for automated theming and live design-code sync.
System artifacts
The work behind the UI. These are the pieces that make a design system durable and easy to adopt.
Token taxonomy
A naming model that supports themes, density, and semantic intent across platforms.
- Core tokens
- Semantic tokens
- Component tokens
Automation and ops
Pipelines that keep design and code aligned and reduce maintenance cost.
- Figma to tokens
- Release notes and versioning
- Visual regression gates
Accessibility baseline
Accessible patterns baked in so product teams do not need to remember the rules.
- Keyboard and focus patterns
- Contrast and motion safety
- Screen reader semantics
Governance that ships
Clear contribution paths that support scale and avoid design drift.
- RFC workflow
- Contribution guidelines
- Adoption analytics
