The field of User Experience is constantly evolving, and my dual role as a practitioner and an educator has kept me at the forefront of industry trends. Over the years I’ve developed a practical and humanistic approach for carrying out user research that emphasizes efficiency while ensuring the data we collect is insightful valid, comprehensive, and actionable. To succeed as a UX Researcher you need to develop skills in working with stakeholders on your team as stakeholders often have different priorities and a different understanding of the problem you are exploring.
