Special guest
I love my work because it allows me to uncover opportunities to bring positivity and delightfulness to peoples' lives. I do that by improving the way people interact with their day-to-day business tools and also by making the digital products they use more engaging and pleasurable to work with. I am in a profession currently known as User Experience Design, and I am the Senior Product Strategist for Table XI where I design applications and web experiences.
