About Patrick Colligan

I design systems that scale and experiences that stick. With 10+ years, most recently in enterprise SaaS, I specialize in turning complex, messy workflows into clean, intuitive products that move business metrics.At EverCommerce, I lead design across a portfolio of B2B healthcare and digital marketing products, owning everything from design systems and component libraries to end-to-end user flows and stakeholder alignment. I\'ve cut dev time by 25% through scalable UI patterns, standardized design tokens across product lines, and helped bridge the gap between marketing and product to improve conversion and retention.I care deeply about the why behind design decisions, which means I\'m as comfortable in a product strategy session as I am in Figma.Strengths: Design Systems · B2B SaaS · Cross-functional Leadership · Accessibility · Figma · Design Tokens · Responsive Web & Mobile · Stakeholder Alignment
