If I do a job in 30 minutes it’s because I spent 10 years learning how to do that in 30 minutes. You owe me for the years, not the minutes.

I refuse to work with 'personas'. They are made up and not actual users. We shouldn't be basing products on 'dream users' because in reality, every user is different and we shouldnt be segrating them. We should be working with problems and intent for every user. Personas are wack

As a blossoming designer, you'll be told your work sucks. You'll be told you can't do it. And you'll be told to give up. But no matter who tries to bring you down, never stop creating. Many of the world's most successful designers started out just like you. ✌️ #WednesdayWisdom

Been a pleasure working with this bunch from @RealMAG_O. I learnt a lot and felt privileged to have worked on some great products for the Manchester Airport. I am sure we will cross paths in the future. Will miss my crew and I am ready for the next challenge 😁

Had an awesome induction at Booking Go. Amazing that so many people travelled across the world to work here. I made three buddies from Germany, Italy and Venezuela. Also the starter pack is sick as well. This is onboarding done right

If I said it a billion times it will never be enough: The user experience doesn’t end at the edges of the screen. Therefore a UX designer’s job & a UX researcher’s job shouldn’t be limited to what happens on screen, it should take in the entire context & any touchpoints involved.

Working with award winning designs at my workplace is definitely quite intimidating but a massive privilege. I am gonna learn as much as possible from them. Gotta ignore the status quo and focus what value I can bring to the team and the business :)

Little bit disappointed that XD don't have basic features like rulers or pages. The exporting to jpegs or pngs is a bit to be desired for as well. They really done well on the prototyping aspect but the design side of it needs a bit more tweaking

Was awesome to have Jared Spool at our Booking Go offices talking about the definition and purpose of good design and experiences. Thanks for visiting Manchester and hope you enjoy the rest of your stay 👍
