Mina Markham is a front-end architect, international speaker, and advocate of design systems. She writes code for a living, currently as a Senior Engineer at Slack.

Mina Markham brings a ray of hope that flitters in the sky with advice on refactoring an existing codebase into a design system. Greenfield projects are rare, so can we move forward with legacy styles in place? All across the land dawns a brand new morn, this comes to pass when a new design system is born.
