18. The Recent UX Designer - Vanessa Devine @ Cheeky Monkey Media
Episode description
Vanessa Devine is a UX Designer and Project Manager at Cheeky Monkey Media in British Columbia, Canada.
In this episode of Understanding Users, my first full-length interview with an international guest, Vanessa tells me about starting her UX career during a pandemic, the thrill of watching your own projects develop and actually go live, and the power of getting clients emotionally invested in the UX process.
We also discuss the UX scene in Canada, her frustration that so many UX books seem to retread familiar themes, and how she’s itching to know where UX goes from here.
Finally, she plays my 3 card challenge to share her favourite UX tool, favourite technique and a trend she sees (or would like to see) in the future.
Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoy the episode.
