Design Systems for Cornerstone Ondemand

At Cornerstone, I co-founded the atomic design system with a tight-knit team of designers and engineers. The goal was clear: bring order and scale to a growing product ecosystem that had become fragmented over time.

I focused on designing and maintaining the core UI components, working closely with our dedicated engineers to ensure precision from Figma to code. We built a process that funneled wireframes into standardized system components—streamlining the handoff between UX and UI, and grounding our work in real product needs.

In just six months, we delivered around 80% of the foundational library, complete with documentation, guidelines, and coded components. As adoption spread, the system became a game-changer—boosting UI feature development speed by roughly 80% across teams. What started as a cleanup effort became a scalable engine for faster, more consistent product delivery.
