You can:

• Comfortably take point as the UX design expert and provide insights and support to project teams
• Work iteratively and collaboratively with teams to deliver research, concept generation, evaluation, and synthesis

• Recommend thoughtful user-centered research approaches and methodologies
• Interact daily with Creative Directors, designers as well as research peers to understand and inform your designs

You have:
