A course by Ethan Parry
Ethan’s interest in UX started when working in public relations in San Francisco, taking part in Adobe’s largest Creative Cloud launch in 2015 and working with Silicon Valley’s biggest players in tech. After completing a UX Design boot camp program, he decided to further his knowledge in the field and study a master’s degree in Interaction Design at ELISAVA School of Design and Engineering in Barcelona, Spain.
Since then, Ethan has worked in both agency and consultancy settings, for international clients such as Meliá Hotels International, SEAT, and Dunia. He leads workshops for businesses such as KPMG, Accenture, El Corte Inglés, and Hola Magazine, and is part of the European Adobe XD team (Adobe XDI).
Over the past few years, he has been part of the Interaction Design Association’s Interaction Awards committee, which recognizes and celebrates examples of excellence in Interaction Design across domains, channels, environments and cultures, and teaches UX design and Agile methodology topics at several design universities and boot camps in Barcelona.
