Discovery on a Budget
As a user experience designer, one of the things that excites me the most is sitting down with a client to define the problems they are solving for. Understanding why greatly shapes what and how.
For smaller web projects and blogs, often driven by tight budgets and great urgency, the importance of proper project discovery is easily overlooked.

Finding my voice
Understanding how to write about my work is challenging my sensibilities. All of them.
While I dive head first into UX projects with delight, curiosity and at times inordinate amounts of gesturing (for example, I get visibly excited when building navigation schemes), when writing about it, I sound clinical.
