HELLO!
I'm Michael Dusing, a product lead and consultant with 15 years of experience, both in-house and at digital agencies.
A strategic problem solver and user advocate. I have worked on products across various platforms from web apps to native iOS, tvOS, Android, Amazon, and voice assistance. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines and working with passionate, driven team members. I am a co-host of a weekly UX podcast: Sprint, with two other talented user experience professionals and host of Develop Happy Hour, a Meetup for tech professionals.
I am committed to learning and evolving my skills with each and every project. Nothing makes me happier than when my assumptions are tested and proven wrong. The more we know about the people using our products the better we can serve them. I believe in A/B testing, user research and strategic design. I believe that a solution can come from any member of the team and from any discipline.

I’m a world traveler; having traveled to the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Japan, and lived in France for a short while. I’m a tech nerd always staying up-to-date on the latest gadgets and trends in emerging technologies. I’m a craft beer enthusiast who loves a good Porter, Amber or Stout. A self proclaimed foodie willing to try anything and expand my horizons of the delicious things this world has to offer.
