Figma's first UX Writer (Chris Baty)

from Writers of Silicon Valley · host Patrick Stafford

One of the biggest challenges for UX writers is figuring out how to embed themselves within the design process. Tools like Figma are making that easier. After all, being able to edit a design without any specific software makes it harder not to give writers access. Which means it's easier for us to do our job. Chris Baty is the Principal UX Writer at Figma, and was previously the head of UX writing at Dropbox. He's also the founder of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). He's a busy guy. He's also an exceptional champion for all types of writers everywhere. Including content designers. In this episode we talk about him joining Figma, the work he's doing there to make Figma an exceptional tool for UX writers and content designers, and what it's like working as a team of one. And so much more. -------------------------- Listeners get 20% off courses and workshops at UX Content Collective! Just use PODCAST20 at checkout.
