Ep. 19. How Figma's Principal UX Writer (Chris Baty) is helping build design software that UX writers love
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.

From The Podcast
Writers of Silicon Valley
UX writing. Content design. Call it whatever you want, but the truth is clear: words and content are more important to good design than ever. The words, phrases, and sentences you see in a user interface don't just appear there. They are written. Carefully crafted. This podcast is about the people who write those words, who design experiences with words, and who combine the power of language and technology.Join Podchaser to...
