Dave Gates is a Senior User Experience Designer at Farmers Insurance. He possess expertise in user experience, information architecture, interaction design, usability testing, user interface and 26 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Dave is exactly what I hope for in a UX designer. We collaborated on the creation of a legal platform. Throughout the design process, I found his logical and methodical approach and his ability to identify and challenge seemingly basic assumptions particularly invaluable. From discovery through user testing, Dave was able to keep the potentially complex user experience streamlined and intuitive." and "Before we had Dave join our team as the UX Designer, we had no idea how much his skill was beneficial to a project. Dave's expertise was evident from the very beginning, during the planning stage, when requirements gathering was focused on force-adding new functionality into AS IS screens, instead of redesigning these screens to make the new functionality work effectively. His pragmatic approach to problem solving helped guide the team to come up with the best solution by allowing each team member to contribute their expertise into the design which he then translated into mock ups that clearly painted the TO BE picture. Dave is also very funny, smart, full of anecdotes....all of which made time spent with him a delight!"
