About Anders Seierøe Mortensen

Senior UX Designer at Queue-it

I'm a Senior Product Designer with 17 years of experience in a variety of UX and Product Design disciplines. I have a holistic approach to product design and design thinking. I believe, as a designer, it's important to have a point of view and find the method that suits your way of thinking. I believe collaboration and teamwork are some of the most important parts of the design process. I have a past in both Fine Arts and Graphic Design.

In my sessions, I can help you improve your UX skills, including soft skills and hands-on techniques.

As a mentor, I can assist you with various issues such as:

· Collaborating effectively with non-designers. · Obtaining valuable feedback from co-workers and users. · Improving your skills beyond what you learned in school. · Implementing UX best practices to make your work fit your way of working. · Challenging yourself by stepping beyond your comfort zone. · Identifying the skills that senior designers seek in junior designers. · Prep for job interviews.

I'm NOT the best fit if you are looking for:

· In depth portfolio reviews. I've done a bunch of these, and I often end up repeating the same points, but I can give you some general pointers. · Networking tips. Truth is, I'm pretty terrible at networking myself and don't enjoy it at all. So please reach out to some of the great people on this platform who are more experienced in this field than me. · Want me to be part of your network. See above.
