Starting a Career in User Experience Design

houshang — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 16:24:08 +0000

In the early part of February I was hired by Clearwell Systems as a User Experience Designer (UED). It’s so exciting, now I’m using a whole new spectrum of skills that I’ve used for other reasons but now how a real life use for them. Where Web Design was about the psychology of branding, UED is about empathic-ally stepping into the shoes of a user.

I’m so excited about the change and grateful to everyone for supporting my business for so many years.
