Thanks for asking! When it comes to design, you get really good at working with and around problems, mostly because you and your team are trying to create a solution for those problems.
My design philosophy is “get to the root of the problem, then work your way up from there.” That means really spending time getting to know your users, the tools they’re using, and paying attention to any and all pain points.
If at the end of our time together, you feel like your concerns and values were seen and respected, then I’ll consider that a success!
