I fix inconsistent UI systems so teams can ship faster and with fewer mistakes.

If your design system feels inconsistent, components don’t match designs, and accessibility keeps getting pushed aside, I fix that.

Most design systems don't fail from lack of effort. They fail from lack of structure.

  • Phase 1 — Audit
    Find the problems.

Not sure where your design system stands?

The free Design System Scorecard is a 32-point interactive assessment covering the five dimensions of a healthy design system: component consistency, accessibility, token architecture, documentation, and handoff process. Answer each question and get a real-time score that shows you exactly where your system is healthy and where it's creating risk.

Most paid engagements start here.

If this sounds familiar, your system isn't working:

  • UI that looks different across products or teams
  • Components that are duplicated or hard to reuse
  • Accessibility issues that keep getting pushed off
  • A design system that exists but no one really follows

You don't need more components. You need a system that actually works.

Accessibility issues don't start in QA. They start in your components.

When a button component is built without keyboard support, that violation exists everywhere the button is used. When color contrast is hardcoded instead of managed through tokens, every team pulling from your library inherits the same failure. When there's no documented handoff process, developers rebuild components that already exist, each time introducing new risk.

This is how accessibility debt scales. Not one bug at a time, but one component at a time, replicated across your entire product. The legal exposure is real: over 4,000 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) website lawsuits were filed in 2024, and more than two-thirds targeted companies with less than $25 million in annual revenue. But a lawsuit is a symptom. The underlying cause is a component system that was never structured to enforce consistency or compliance in the first place.

An audit finds the structural problems so your team fixes the cause, not just the symptoms.
