Hey 🙂

Hi, I’m Chudo. I’m a designer in San Jose, California. You may know me from the double 180° hack or the resizable auto layout spacer 😬. I also speak Japanese and hope to live there some day.

Find me on the Friends of Figma Slack community or @chudoloo on the Figma Community.

Hey everyone, I’m Mattan Ingram, solo product designer at artemisag.com.

I’m a design tool nerd, and love HTML and CSS. Currently working on a side-project with my brother which is an open-source CSS animation toolkit called AnimXYZ.

Always happy to answer any product design or development questions. Looking forward to discussing Figma stuff with this great community!

👋🏾 Hey

Hey there! 👋

Alex here, I design products by day and create helpful & inspiring community resources by night.

I spent 2020 helping Figma users to solve all sorts of problems. My specialty — simple & efficient solutions when possible, hacky (but cool 😉) in other cases.

Can’t wait to see you all in this cozy space! 🤗

Hey Everyone! I’m Alex Carr, VP of Creative at Maark in Boston and live up in Salem MA 👻. Mostly focused on the design of digital tools for the enterprise. I like screenprinting, I have too many design books, and I have two cats. They’re pretty great cats.

I also made the Contrast plugin for Figma. 🔍 ❤️ 💛 💚 💙

Hey Alex, welcome.

By the way, I use your plugin a lot, Thanks.

Hello everyone! I’m Jean, a product designer from Toronto 🇨🇦, specializing in design systems.

I love the Figma community - it’s helped me shape my career!

So to give back, I made Figpie, a free Figma plugin that creates pie charts! Hope you like it 🥧 😊

And feel free to connect with me - Here’s my website & socials.

I’d love to make new friends from Figma!

Oh, hello there stranger! It’s been a while, huh? We should catch up soon. 👋

Hey there, Glen 👋 Yes, Glen is a Figma OG! 😄

Wow, so many friendly faces and impressive bios!

👋 My name is Jason and I oversee our Support and Product Education teams here at Figma. I joined as Figma’s first Support hire 4 years ago and now our teams are 25 people strong and growing. @Josh and @thudson have been working hard on this new forum and I’m excited to see it come into existence. 👏

My wife and I (and our little 🐕 Sam) recently bought a house and moved from SF → LA. In my spare time I like to noodle on my guitar, hike, bike, practice flying my new drone, read philosophy and check out new coffee shops.

Happy New Year everyone! 🥳

Thanks. Happy New year Jason

Thanks @Steven!

Hi all! Nelson Taruc, Figma Community Advocate for Chicago. Head of Product for LexGo (https://lexgo.work) and Principal Designer at Lextech (https://lextech.com), using Figma for all the things! Big fan of pop-punk and NASCAR, so if you wanna design stuff for Knuckle Puck or Hendrick Motorsports, let’s fire up a Figma file! Find me on Twitter at @ntfromchicago.

Special shout out to @Josh for making Discourse look good in 2021 and for writing THE article that made me switch from Sketch to Figma way back in the day: https://twitter.com/ntfromchicago/status/1288660849192828929?s=21

Hi - I’m Todd Rinker … @toddnrinker on Twitter. I’m based in Portland, Oregon.

Hello everyone, I’m Matheus Cardoso, a UX/UI newbie and CS student from São Paulo, Brazil 🇧🇷 in love with Figma almost 6 months. Can found me at ig @ux.matheus

See you soon people 😉

It’s great to see everyone introduce themselves and be surrounded by familiar faces.

My name is Gavin. I’m a freelance designer who enjoys making things. I don’t really stick to one thing. I’ve worked as an interaction designer and a user researcher. I recently created a few Figma plugins that make managing your design system a little easier, as well as several community resources. I’m extremely grateful to everyone at Figma, including their Support team, and Community and Designer advocates.

I have a cat called Floyd who thinks he’s a dog. He plays fetch and sleeps between my wife and I when we go to bed. I love Lego but I wish I had more time and space to built it in. I really enjoy cooking (and eating), so if you ever wanna share recipes let me know.

I want to help people just as others have helped me. I to love listen and learn from such diverse and talented people. Feel free to say hello 👋 here or on twitter @gavinmcfarland.

That’s so neat! Loving this experience so far, really unique too.

Hey friends! I’m Reony, or @megaroeny (find more about me there), a Community Advocate for the Washington D.C. area group.

I’ve been using Figma since 2016. I currently work at QOMPLX here in Northern Virginia as their Senior Product Designer. We’re a multi-brand/product company, so I’ve had a lot of experience over the past few years making a design system in Figma for multiple brands/products. I also thoroughly enjoy taking advantage of Auto Layout, so I’m happy to answer questions on either topic.

Notably, my other time is taken up by:

• Being a dad and husband 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
  


• Loving food 🍱
  


• Gaming ⌨️🖱️
  


• Advocating electric vehicles


• Doing yoga 🧘 and hiking 🥾
  

So exciting to see this LIVE! Congrats to the Figma team on this. I’m loving the experience so far!

Hi everyone,

I’m Rogier, a digital product designer from Amsterdam specializing in design systems, online typography and digital identities.

👋 Hey,

My name is Andrei Iancu, and I’m working as a UI/UX Designer at Sparktech. In 2018, we switched to Figma, and since then, we have integrated it more and more in our workflow on both design and dev.

My first plugin is called Styler, and it started as a learning process for both javascript and code thinking. Currently, I’m working on my second plugin, which has as a target to expand features already present in Figma.

I also participated in Biscuit Challenge #1 where we pushed Figma to its limit.
