About Morten Winther

IxD Manager at Intuitive Surgical

I'm a Danish UX designer and strategist now based in the Bay Area, California. I get excited about all-things user research, by flipping design problems upside-down, by geeking out about data flows and system architectures, and by stubbornly fighting for futures that will help improve people's lives.
