Systems thinking : component libraries, tokens, and documentation that speed delivery without stifling iteration.

Research & testing : plan / conduct interviews, write test scripts, analyze findings, and prioritize fixes.

Interaction & motion : thoughtful micro-interactions and feedback; pragmatic animation for clarity (not flair).

Accessibility : color contrast, focus states, semantics guidance, touch targets, keyboard flows.
