About your teachers

Brad Frost
Hi, I'm Brad Frost! I'm a design system consultant, front-end developer, teacher, speaker, writer, musician, and artist. I'm so incredibly passionate about the web, creativity, and helping people collaborate to make great digital things together.
Over the course of my career, I've helped teams establish and evolve design systems by combining solid architecture with more collaborative processes and culture. I created Atomic Design, and my book introduces a methodology to create and maintain effective design systems. I've been a part of a slew of design systems projects, including co-hosting the Style, inventing Pattern Lab, curating Styleguides.io, creating Style Guide Guide, and many others.
I love creating things, and I'm equally passionate about teaching. Through conferences, workshops, trainings, seminars, my long-running blog, my book, and other avenues, I've taught design systems best practices to hundreds of thousands of designers and developers all over the world.
I live in beautiful Pittsburgh, PA with my wife, my daughter Ella, and our French bulldog Bootsy. When I'm not neck-deep in design tokens, you can find me playing music and creating things any chance I can get.

Ian Frost
I'm Ian Frost, Brad's younger brother. I'm a front-end architect, technical lead, and consultant who loves to help level up developers.
I've been developing design systems alongside Brad since 2015. Over the years, I've built design systems in many technologies: Web Components, React, Angular, Vue, and others. I've partnered with tech leads, developers, and designers from dozens of organizations to help them successfully establish, implement, and maintain sturdy design system and token architecture. This work is equal parts art and science, and I'm so excited to share our hard-earned lessons to make your life easier.
Before my life as a web designer, I was a professional meteorologist. When I'm not slingin' code or forecasting for snow, you can find me playing music, sports, or spending time with my wife and son.
