Great UX is a team sport!

Daniel Schwartz is a product and UX design leader (player/coach) and mentor with 15+ years of experience. I enjoy leading product design for enterprise-scale software products to deliver clean, effective, elegant, and delightful user experiences that solve problems and deliver ROI to the customer. I also believe that the best products delivered are those done in a team fashion where engineering, product, and design are working together to deliver product, user, and customer goals.
