ABOUT KATE JOHNSTON

I’m a problem solver. My passion is working with a team to create a UX vision. A vision of how UX can be integrated throughout the software lifecycle and allow us to advocate for users at every step. I believe in data-driven design and live by the mantra, ‘You are not the user’. I believe that the best approach is to get out there and do some research. Meet your users. I love working to coach a team on research best practices, advocating for them to get out there, and supporting how those findings are used throughout the company. Finally, I believe in a strong collaborative environment. Working closely with a cross functional team of research, design, and engineering is the best way to understand the realities of where user needs and systems constraints must be carefully managed to create a beautiful experience.
