This is HCD is brought to you by Humana Design

Over the course of the last year or so, I’ve heard whispers in the UX community of a new role emerge called a UX Writer and instantly was drawn to it as I have identified the issues many times in my career of the solutions that a role like this can address. She also published a really great article on Medium that I’ll also add to the show notes. We caught up online to record this episode, and had a good chat about how Rachael got into the industry, what she does, the principles of good UX writing, what tools she uses and much much more.
