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.
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
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.
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!

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.
Hello everyone,
I’m Ozer, a Backend Developer in Turkey. I have always had a curiosity for design and I can’t let go since I discovered Figma and used it. I’m trying to improve. For the moment I’m just having fun.
Hi I’m Richard Earney - Head of Design for a small offshoot of one of the biggest energy platforms in the UK.
I’ll admit was unsure about Figma when I was first introduced to it having previously done UX design first in Photoshop then Illustrator then moved to Sketch when that came along.
A few months in and was a full convert to Figma - now 2 years in and I love the community
Biggest claim to fame is as the original designer of the Shazam app
Also a photographer - find me at @methodphotonew on Instagram
You’ll find me on the Friends of Figma Slack occasionally. Always happy to help
