About Me

Hello,

I am an Design System expert

Who am I?

I am Alex, an award winning UX designer and current consultant for healthcare and enterprise clients. I got into UX in 2018.

My career

I have been involved in all stages of product delivery. From leading seed-stage startups on how to grow their teams, all the way to helping SaaS and enterprise companies improve scale their designs for future growth and engagement.

I've worked with Bayer, Johnson & Johnson, GM, Chevrolet, Kaiser Permanente, TATA, and I am currently working for public services.

What's next?

You'll find me anywhere I can fuss over micro-interactions and delight customers.

I am Alex Heustess. This is my story — alongside some images from my recent trip to New Zealand.

Background in product design

In college, I got my B.S. in Product Design. However, I had always wanted more ways to integrate code and my digital skills into my workflow.

I began taking classes in User Experience Design, where I met with McLean Donnelly. A mentor who helped me graduated with a minor in UX and the knowledge of what I loved to do.

My free time

I go for runs outdoors, tell stories publicly and design websites when I am off the clock!
