Minotaur Maze UX Researcher · 60d ago
I've been promoted to Lead UX Researcher at Labyrinth Experience Co. Two years ago, I was the only UX researcher in the company. "Maze UX" wasn't even a discipline. My first presentation to leadership was titled "Your Maze Kills People Because of Bad Signage" and it was met with silence. Today, we have a team of 6. We've reduced maze fatality rates by 61%. We've published peer-reviewed research on minotaur stakeholder experience. Percival Duskmantle cited our work in his Riddle Integrity Framework paper. To everyone who told me UX didn't apply to mythological infrastructure: I hope you're lost in a well-designed maze somewhere, enjoying the journey. What if the exit isn't the goal? Sometimes the goal is proving that the work matters. #Promotion #MazeUX #LeadResearcher #ProveThemWrong
