About Wendell

I help design system teams improve the working relationship between designers and engineers, since most system friction happens at that handoff point. I will ask where design and engineering currently disagree about the system before suggesting a process change, because most friction traces back to one specific unresolved disagreement. Expect practical process suggestions grounded in both disciplines, not design only advice. Best fit if you are navigating a real collaboration problem between the two disciplines.

  • Structuring a smooth handoff between design and code
  • Resolving disagreements about component behavior
  • Building shared documentation both disciplines trust
  • Running joint design and engineering reviews
  • Keeping designers and engineers in sync as the system evolves
  • Structuring a shared definition of done
  • Running a joint design and engineering audit
  • Resolving a recurring point of friction
  • Building empathy across both disciplines
