In my past life, I was a multimedia journalist.
This has prepared me well for a career in UX research, which has a very similar approach to what I used to do as a reporter.
I also spent half of my time in the newsroom doing audience engagement, sharpening my skills in data analytics and graphic design.
Here are some of the projects from the good old days.
