Show Notes

This week we’ll be talking to Caitlin Goodale, Head of UX Design at Drest, a product that sits on the crossroads of fashion, e-commerce and video games.  

Caitlin has a eclectic background starting as a pixel artist, moving into augmented reality game design at Microsoft and then product design at Memrise. This uniquely qualifies her for the role of Head of UX Design at Drest, a role she assumed late last year.

We’ll discuss how she has adapted to her new leadership role, and what it’s like not just working with product managers and engineers, but also fashion gurus and game designers.
