Guidelines With Jonathan Copeland

On this episode of Guidelines I sit down with UX researcher as well as co-founder and director of Monkey and river, Jacques Brosens. With experience ranging from software development, to business and user research backed by academia, Jacque has valuable insights on on what it looks like to apply user cerated design at every stage of a products lifecycle.
