About me

Figure image of Ben Worley

I'm a craftsman, tinkerer, continuous learner through obsessive curiosity, with fifteen years of industry experience as a User Experience/User Interface/Interaction Designer, nine years of Design Operations, and ten years of Front-End development.

I am passionate about using my gifts of creativity, leadership, and eagerness to tackle complex and challenging problems to help make a positive dent in the world.  The vehicle I use to apply this is through design.  I enjoy spending time designing for the holistic user experience for how cross-functional teams and departments solve problems, communicate and collaborate, and company and team level vision, strategy, and planning.
