I fix inconsistent UI systems so teams can ship faster and with fewer mistakes.
If your components don't match designs, your system feels inconsistent, and accessibility keeps getting pushed aside, you're not alone. Most teams don't have a tooling problem. They have a structure problem.
Signs your system isn't working:
- UI looks different across products or teams
- Components are duplicated or hard to reuse
- Accessibility keeps getting pushed off
- Designers and developers are out of sync
- The same UI issues come up every sprint
You don't need more components. You need a system that actually works.
Most teams try to fix a broken system by adding more.
More components. More documentation. More rules. That usually makes things worse. Because the real problem isn't what's missing. It's how everything is structured. Without a clear system:
- decisions get remade
- components drift
- accessibility breaks down
- teams slow down
The result isn't just inconsistency. It's wasted time, rework, and growing risk.
Not sure where to start? Start here.
Most teams know something isn't off—but not exactly what. Use the free Design System Scorecard to get a clear picture of where your system stands.
Score your design systemAlready know where things are breaking down?
Here's how to address it:
System feels inconsistent?
Design System Audit.
Foundation is weak or patchy?
Component Library Starter.
Design and dev are out of sync?
Design-to-Code Workflow.
Most problems fall into three areas:
Audit
Find what's actually broken.Design System Audit Where every engagement begins
Before you build anything new, you need to understand what's actually broken.
Build
Fix the foundation.Component Library Starter
Stabilize and scale your UI system with a foundation built to last, not patched to survive.
Align
Fix how the team works.Design-to-Code Workflow
Reduce handoff friction and rework. Fix the process once so your team stops losing time to it every sprint.
You don't need to guess which one. We figure that out together.
Accessibility issues don't start in QA.
They start in your components. When accessibility isn't built into your system, every team inherits the same problems.
This is how accessibility debt grows: not one bug at a time, but one component at a time. Fix the system, and you fix the source.
