008 - Serial Entrepreneurship, Design for Commerce, UX Methodology with Heidi Finn of GoDaddy

Today, I’m talking to Heidi Finn.-Heidi is currently the Sr. Director of Product Design on the Commerce team at GoDaddy, a domain register and web hosting company. Before GoDaddy, she worked at PayPal as the Sr. Design Manager and co-founded two startups - TripCraft and Videoo.-In our conversation, we delved into a variety of topics, including designing for commerce, the pros & cons of joining a startup as a designer, UX methodologies, and so much more. Personally, the most eye-opening part was when Heidi talked about the challenges of designing e-commerce vs physical commerce where cultural differences need to be considered. So, without further ado, here’s my conversation with Heidi Finn.===Highlights⭐ Being a serial entrepreneur⭐ Pros and cons of working at a startup as a designer⭐ Challenges designing for commerce⭐ UX methodologies⭐ How to communicate with stakeholders===Not Just Pixels is a student-led UX Design podcast that strives to help you grow as a designer and get that next design internship or job.
