About Miwako Zosel
UX Researcher at SmartBear
Mixed-method UX researcher with a psychology research foundation. I'm known as the connector—bringing cross-functional teams together and turning research into actionable insights through clear storytelling.
I've built UX research practices from the ground up as a sole researcher and thrived in both dispersed research teams and remote/hybrid environments. With 5+ years in tech across B2B software and journalism, I transitioned to UX research after discovering it was the perfect blend of my passion for psychology research and technology.
Currently a UX Researcher at a SaaS company, I love mentoring those entering UX, breaking into tech, or just starting their careers. I can help you with:
