Maybe You're Supposed To Be a UX Researcher | Nandi Manning, UX HER
UI Narrative: UX, UI, IxD, Design and Research
09/21/21 • 52 min
Episode 49 Show Notes:
As a designer, a lot of my podcast topics are about design. However, some of you may be struggling more than others with design, or you’re finding that your day-to-day pixel-pushing isn’t making you happy. So I must ask you, have you considered that maybe you’re not supposed to be a designer? Perhaps it’s UX Research that you’re genuinely passionate about.
Nandi Manning is currently a UX Researcher at Mailchimp, but she didn’t start her career out as a UX Researcher. She was previously a UX Designer! In this episode, she walks us through her process of transitioning from UX Designer to UX Researcher.

Why Do We Suck At Accessibility Design?
UI Narrative: UX, UI, IxD, Design and Research
01/28/20 • 29 min
Episode 17 Show Notes:
We need to take time to think about if the products we’re creating are accessible. We can’t miss out on these potential relationships with people. You never know who could impact from the product you’re helping create. We must consider them while designing.

Approaching Design With a Builders Mindset | Randall Wilson, Capital One
UI Narrative: UX, UI, IxD, Design and Research
08/26/21 • 49 min
Episode 47 Show Notes:
Randall Wilson has been a designer for several years and has spent a decade working at Capital One. I was surprised when I saw his long tenure with a company because I've had to jump to new positions to achieve growth opportunities and salary increase in my career. His response to why he's stayed so long was, "People don't leave jobs, they leave managers," and that phrase has stuck with me because it's so genuine.
There's a lot more I'd love to share with you about Randall's career experience, like being on the hit TV Show Lego Masters and how his background in architecture influences his design.

How UX Designers Work Well With Agile Methods
UI Narrative: UX, UI, IxD, Design and Research
02/11/20 • 35 min
Episode 18 Show Notes:
Not everyone works well in this type of environment. I personally like it because I see my ideas come to life very quickly. Is an agile process hurting you or helping you as a designer? Or could you adapt? It takes a bit of time to get used to working in agile, and I think it’s like this for everyone when they first start doing it.
