Joey Banks

Teacher, Design Systems Consultant, Product Designer

Hi there, I’m Joey! 👋 I’m a product designer with experience at Webflow, Twitter, and Figma, specializing in design systems at scale.


I created this course to help designers feel confident and comfortable in Figma, whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your skillset.


I’ve been using Figma since 2016 and have seen firsthand how invaluable it can be. I’m also the creator of several iOS and macOS UI kits, downloaded over 750,000 times in the Figma Community. Teaching is my passion, and I’ve had the privilege of mentoring designers at all levels, from startups to enterprise teams, through specialized training and workshops.
