hi,

I’M CHRISTIAN GONZALEZ

chris@chrisgonzalez.design

ABOUT ME

I’m Christian González, currently working as a UX/UI Product Designer at Nike. My career as a digital designer began in San Francisco, where I lived for five years before recently relocating to Dallas, Texas.

my ROLE

My role focuses on the production side of design systems, where I help translate design decisions into scalable, production-ready components. I contribute to the evolution of the system by creating new components, maintaining existing libraries, and supporting end-to-end delivery. With deep expertise in Figma and strong component architecture, I bring a high level of execution, precision, and scalability to every component I build.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a strong technical mindset, which allows me to build design solutions that are both visually refined and highly functional. I’m passionate about systematizing design, improving workflows, and creating structured yet flexible components that empower teams to work more efficiently. My approach combines design precision with practical execution, ensuring that every element I work on serves a clear purpose within a broader ecosystem.
