Summary
Anthony Dispezio is a Designer Advocate at Figma with 14 years of experience bridging product design, front-end development, and creative storytelling. He has evolved from frontend designer and animator roles at institutions like Woods Hole and National Geographic to senior product design and advocacy leadership at Inkling and Figma, where he has managed and grown designer advocacy efforts. Based in San Francisco, he combines a BFA in Interactive Design and Sound Design with hands-on expertise in content engineering, animation, and user-facing frontend systems. Known for translating complex technical and design problems into clear, usable experiences, he brings both craft-level execution and community-facing mentorship to product teams. An uncommon thread across his career is the blend of multimedia production skills—videography and sound—with modern design tooling advocacy, enabling richer storytelling around product adoption.
