What's it like working as a one-woman UX team when your users are also the very people you sit next to in the office? And what can you do when you're the only one dedicated to advocating for user experience? Join us as we talk about Darshini's experiences working at Samsung, Ford, and now at Ashley Furniture and her tips on how to navigate being the only UX'er in the room.
