Principal Product Designer & UX strategy
In my own words:
I have been doing UX since 2009. Over the last decade and a half the definition, skill, and purpose of this role has gone through many evolutions. We are currently experiencing a giant shake up as AI becomes our co-worker and personal assistant.
In this photo of the slot canyons, I see how this scene embodies the product development cycle. We know where we want to go (road map) and often find ourselves navigating familiar patterns and unexpected experiences every step of the turn.
