About

Hi, I’m Chris Willoughby, a UI Engineer and UX Designer with 10+ years of delivering enterprise-scale, user-focused applications. I excel in Figma, React, and Design Systems, with a strong emphasis on accessibility (WCAG) and inclusive design, and I’m applying AI-driven automation to streamline workflows. I’m adept at bridging design, development, and business goals to create scalable digital experiences and lead cross-functional teams to deliver measurable results. I’ve led redesigns, built design systems, and mentored designers and developers to raise quality and consistency across products.
