Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 27/12/2024One of my favorite threads on Twitter right now comes from the co-founder of Intercom.

Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 20/12/2024Designing anatomy study tools for pre-med students ended up being the foot in the door I needed And eventually that experience helped me land the role as the founding designer at Maven That little set of three mockups changed everything for me :) 110
Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 20/12/2024Months later someone found those designs on Dribble and I received an offer from a company called Bootcamp to lead design on a new product suite! ✅ Good news: I was working in education 😵💫 Bad news: Cadavers make me nauseous lol 100
Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 20/12/2024As soon as I graduated college I knew I wanted to work in education But 5+ years into my career I hadn't taken a single step So one afternoon I mocked up some ideas for a homeschooling product This ~2 hour design exercise ended up creating an inflection point in my career 👇 110

Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Software is about to get a LOT more personalized And on the heels of AI is a new spatial medium!

Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 19/12/2024What happens when anyone can spend a single afternoon creating an app that is designed specifically for their grandma? Products like that can tap into a level of human expression that simply doesn’t exist in our scale-dictated world. And this is only the beginning… 100
Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 19/12/2024As code becomes cheaper and easier to write, an explosion of niche products is imminent. Old-world economics have capped artistic expression in software if you’re going to invest the time to build something then it better make money and have the potential to scale. But that's about to change... 260

Ridd @ridd-design.bsky.social · 27/11/2024In many ways Perplexity is rewriting the brand design playbook...
