Hi, I’m Christopher Hart, a creative, collaborative product and UX designer with 10 years of experience shipping web and mobile features and building design systems for successful B2B SaaS startups (one IPO, one $2b valuation). I prototype in code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript (React), Git) or in Figma, and I’m a web accessibility expert from my time working in Ed Tech. I thrive in cross-functional teams, turning complex problems into intuitive experiences, conducting user interviews and usability testing, and mentoring junior designers to raise quality and velocity. I particularly enjoy redesigning and refactoring outdated UI to improve its appearance, usability, and accessibility. Because I write front-end code, I'm often able to push up my own design changes to Github.
