I'm looking for a dev to join me on an exciting new project. Remote-friendly. 🇨🇦 preferred but not required. DMs open if you're interested and want to learn more or know anyone else who may be.
After 7 years, last Friday was my last day at Shopify. What a wild journey that was. Very thankful for the opportunities I was given and the amazing people I was lucky to work with along the way.
My brother @cdmcphee and I recently launched an online music store, focusing on synthesizers, guitar effects, and other fun gear for exploring sound. Looking to open a retail store in Ottawa later this spring. cicadasound.ca

I am so excited that people can now use our Figma UI Kit to build experiences and experiment with Polaris.
@HYPD put a ton of time re-building our Figma UI Kit from the ground up ⚡️💯

This is such an important shift and a monumental step forward in how we think about a design system. Amazing work @yeseniaa @hayhughes @BPScott @kaelig and all the team!
Efficiency is a benefit of design systems, but a design system that allows you to efficiently ship a confusing user experience has no value.
I wrote about a big shift we're making to Polaris, by organizing around experiences.

👀 Shopify's admin looks a lot less purple this week.
That's because we heard feedback from merchants that didn’t feel the whimsical illustrations and purple palette represented their businesses.

I've been working on a directory of local Ottawa businesses that can use our support through this tricky time! Find out who's offering what at: together-apart.ca #TogetherApart #SupportLocal #covid19Canada
A few of us that work on Polaris are getting together for a panel to share how and why we built Polaris, how it is evolving, and answering some of your questions about it. Should be fun!

Hey friends! One of the table stakes of good UX is #accessibility. I want to share a personal story about how non-accessible experiences have had an impact on my family and how that’s informed my own UX practice. (Thread)
