About Michelle P

Accessibility Lead & Principal UX Designer at VITA

NOTE: The amount of mentorship requests I have received has increased substantially since I first joined ADPList. As such, I am being a bit more selective with new mentees.

Hiya, I'm Michelle! 👋

I’m a deaf experience designer, researcher and accessibility specialist with a special interest in improving processes, inclusive experiences, and putting research at the forefront of every design I create.

I currently serve as the Principal UX Designer at VITA and as a player experience consultant at Fatshark Games.
