Hands-on support
Most UX practitioners were trained to think user-first, but it's only half the job. If your research isn't connected to what the business is actually trying to achieve, it doesn't matter how good your work is.
It simply won't land.
That's the gap I help to close.
I'm a Senior UX Researcher with 10+ years at Netflix, J&J, McKesson, and Infosys. Taking what I have learned from my experience, I developed Business-First UX™, an approach to UX research and design built around a simple idea: UX delivers real value when it starts with business goals.
What well work on:
Influence and organizational navigation
• The Business-First UX mindset and approach
• Working closely with stakeholders in large organizations
• Influencing project teams no matter where they are in the roadmap
Business fluency for UX practitioners
• Connecting your work to business goals first and what that means
• Delivering insights that leadership actually responds to
• Becoming the person the business turns to, not turns away
Research craft
• Sharpening your UX research and design skills
• Presenting exactly what stakeholders ask for
• Honing your instincts in ways no bootcamp or course currently teaches
