Hands-on support
Hi! My name is Darren Hood.
I'm extremely passionate about all things UX, holding 28+ years of experience in the discipline. My professional footprint spans such organizations as Ford Motor Company, General Motors, DigitasLBi, MRM/McCann, Wunderman Digital, BD, Bosch, Ryder, Omnicell, Cengage Learning, and many more. In academia, I teach UX-related courses at several universities, including Michigan State, Brandeis, and UCLA. You can also hear me on The World of UX podcast, available through a host of popular sources. I'm also a doctoral candidate, completing a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership from Northcentral University.
I look forward to engaging with you and contributing to your journey!
