About Andy Engel

Design Program Manager at Microsoft

Hi! I'm Andy and I have been in UX for over 6 years in a variety of roles: UX Designer, UX Researcher, an most recently Design Program Manager/Design Ops. I've worked in tiny shops, mid-sized orgs, and tech giants and focused on both internal and customer-facing products. But, UX was a career shift for me -- I was a writing teacher at a small college before pivoting into Tech -- and I love chatting about making career/industry changes later in life. Let's connect!

I can help you with: Changing careers/industries and moving into Tech Team rhythms and operations How research fits into team processes Communicating with stakeholders
