Sometimes the Obvious Can Be So Eloquent

“I got tired of explaining to clients and others that I can perform usability work…oh, and I’m an information architect primarily…oh, but when I combine the two like I did on a huge project last year, I was more like an interaction designer…blah blah blah.

Now it’s like this:

ME: “I’m an experience designer.”
THEM: “Oh. What is that?”
ME: “Well, I help develop web-based applications by ensuring the product is well organized, scalable and easy to use. It’s called experience design because these aspects figure heavily into the user’s experience of a product.”
THEM: “Oh I see…that’s interesting.”"
