Pollen C.

I’m a UI/UX designer, Figma design systems expert, and Front-End developer who loves to design and develop scalable websites, web apps, and mobile apps that are not only beautiful and functional, but also technically sound. I began my career in 2015 as an email developer, then transitioned into UI/UX design in 2018, focusing on creating seamless user experiences for web and mobile applications. Over the past year, I’ve expanded my skills into front-end development, working with React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, ShadCN, and Vercel for hosting and CLI setup via GitHub. This enables me to deliver production-ready interfaces that align precisely with the original design. As a Figma expert, I specialize in building scalable design systems that utilize variables, tokens, component libraries, and best practices for auto-layout. I’m well-versed in structuring design files for team collaboration and developer handoff, making products consistent, efficient, and easy to scale. So far, I’ve helped early-stage startups raise over $3.5M+ by delivering polished, conversion-focused digital products that reflect their vision and build user trust. My experience spans a wide range of industries, including Fintech, E-Commerce, Web3, SaaS, EdTech, HealthTech, Travel, Real Estate, and Digital Media. Beyond UI/UX and front-end, I collaborate with a trusted team for full-stack development, using technologies like the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js) as well as AWS ecosystem tools including AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, CloudWatch, and more, allowing us to build reliable, scalable, and performant backends tailored to your product needs. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to support teams throughout the entire product lifecycle, from user research and discovery to UX/UI design, prototyping, front-end development, branding, and product strategy. I’m also experienced with leading design systems like Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines, Google’s Material Design, GitHub’s Primer, and IBM’s Carbon Design System. Whether you need a freelance designer and developer to bring a new product to life or a collaborative partner to support an existing team, I can contribute at any stage. From early discovery and design systems to frontend development and launch, I provide flexible, reliable support. I also regularly collaborate with trusted backend developers for full-stack delivery when needed. With a strong foundation in both design thinking and modern front-end frameworks, I bring a well-rounded and hands-on approach to creating digital products that are effective, scalable, and user-friendly.
