Industry: Health & Fitness
Tools: Figma
I built Fitbit's first comprehensive component library for the smartwatch design team. This involved an audit of currently used Sketch elements and rebuilding into flexible, easy to edit components within the Figma environment. All components and layout templates incorporate editable components, auto-layout and app-specific properties for fast design iteration while maintaining established design standards.

I joined Meta's Reality Labs team to complete, update and maintain the design component system they had started for a wearable device. I contributed rebuilds of current components with added functionality as well as designed new components needed for specific app functions. The update included the addition of various user-selectable properties making each component easily editable while staying within the visual and functional guidelines of an established design system.
