I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to level up their Figma game. Joey is an incredibly talented designer and teacher that did a fantastic job walking us through all the ins and outs that Figma has to offer. I loved the way the course was set up—take this class, you won't regret it!

Joey's class was an incredible experience!! I found the class structure to be excellent, the video lessons were very detailed and clear, and the live sessions were always very encouraging and welcoming. It is a pleasure to be taught by Joey, and he is always eager to assist students with any issues/topics they may have.

I really appreciated the in depth responses, and opportunities to ask questions. Joey was always available, and the recordings were great! This being my third online course, by far has been my favorite.

I'm trying to do my best to learn everything I can in order to be hirable as a junior and I knew that having the knowledge of Figma would be incredibly helpful. Joey really helped me level up! He's an amazing teacher and I’m so glad I got to learn from him!

My design staff took Joey’s class together and we couldn’t be happier with it. Everyone on our team now has a thorough understanding of Auto Layout and Components- we actually built our internal Design System while taking the class. Even for more experienced designers there were still so many tricks and shortcuts we learned. Highly recommended!

Undoubtedly, one of the most remarkable learning experiences I have been fortunate enough to undergo. Joey is 100% a natural born teacher. He created an engaging, and encouraging environment for us to learn, and considering extroverts, ambiverts, introverts in class by setting up various options for us to ask questions/feedback.

From a novice 'grasshopper' to a master, this transformation has been truly remarkable. Joey did an amazing job teaching us the ins and outs of Figma. Safe to say I'm comfortable with shortcuts, Auto Layout, styles + components, prototyping, & more. I'm excited to use the skills I've learned and apply them to my previous and future projects!

Product Designer, Design Systems

Hi there, I'm Joey! 👋 I'm a product designer who focuses on design systems at scale, and I love helping designers feel more comfortable and confident using Figma. I began using Figma in 2016 and have only fallen more in love with the design tool and its incredible capabilities, so much so that I even joined the team for a little while!

I'm also the creator of many iOS and macOS UI kits for Figma, which have been downloaded over 500,000 times in the Figma Community. Teaching is my passion, and I'm grateful to have worked with designers of all levels and from companies of all sizes in my mentoring and specialized training sessions.
