I single-handedly created a scalable, atomic design system from the ground up — the culmination of years studying and applying Brad Frost’s methodology. The result: 3,000+ meticulously crafted, fully documented components deployed across multiple product streams. Every element, from the smallest atom to complex templates, was modular by design — engineered so smaller parts could be reused, combined, and scaled into complete, production-ready experiences. This modularity, paired with clear hierarchies and usage rules, enabled rapid assembly of new interfaces without compromising consistency.

Built in close collaboration with engineering, every component mapped directly to its front-end counterpart in Storybook. I owned the entire process — setting naming conventions, documentation standards, and Figma structures that mirrored the codebase. By maintaining the backlog, running audits, and unblocking dependencies, I ensured the system was pixel-perfect, fully adopted, and resilient — a future-proof foundation for the platform’s growth.

Partnered closely with engineers to validate feasibility, optimise component structure, and ensure every design translated flawlessly from Figma into production-ready Storybook code. A view below of the collaborative proces
