Matt Greisamer — UX Design & Research Leader

Research-led design leadership for complex B2B products.

I build and lead teams whose research changes what gets built, not only how it looks. 10+ years in UX, 7+ managing design and research teams.

Work

Each case study covers the problem, what we did and the outcome.

Hiring, rituals, and a research practice whose remit keeps growing because it keeps proving its value.
