Jason Ogle: The Defender of User Defenders Everywhere

If you listen to the UX Hustle Podcast, you probably also listen to the User Defenders podcast, amiright? In that case, you might think you know Jason Ogle. Think again. In this super-candid episode, I interview THE interviewer. We get into his rocky path to becoming a UX designer and leader within the UX community. We talk about habit forming, design’s role in business, web design in the ’90s, the most important thing to communicate in a UX interview, the AI takeover, and so much more.

We also talk about mentoring and the importance of community.  If you didn't already know how much Jason truly cares about his User Defenders and their success, you'll hear that passion shine through in this conversation.
