4.23.2021 I love using the Figma Mirror app, but I remember being intimidated about using it when I first heard about it, so I wanted to make a simple and straight forward "Get Started" video for anybody who is in the same spot that I was.
12.4.2020 This video idea was born of a client project where I needed to make a figma prototype seem like it had a real working search field, with keyboard interactions and everything. Worked out great!
10.16.2020 I knew I couldn't be the only one who has had an important presentation that they were trying to export from figma, only to find out they don't make it as simple is you'd like... so I worked up this guide!
9.4.2020 Figma's ellipse tool has a lot of fun characteristics, but many of them are somewhat hidden to you until you look them up! In this video I show off the cool ellipse features by making some circular charts.
8.14.2020 Figma's prototyping tools are somewhat limited, but you can do a lot with a little now that overlays are here! This video shows you how to set up a "like" on a photo, complete with hover state.
10.22.2019 In part 2 of my doomsday prep checklist for UX designers conducting remote interviews, I focus on making sure you check all the boxes with your user ahead of time.
10.15.2019 I obsess a little about the details when I get ready for remote user testing. Some might compare it to a doomsday prepper, but I promise there are no 12-year-old tuna cans involved! Just quick and sensible steps that will make testing go off without a hitch.
