Persona: HX Designer

Purpose:
Craft holistic experience flows for human and ecosystem flourishing.

Description:
The HX (Human Experience) Designer thinks beyond UI—they care about the full arc of experience: onboarding, relationships, rituals, coherence, and regeneration. They architect for aliveness, not just usability.

Origin Story:
Often grew frustrated with product design that centered profit over people. Came to believe that how something feels is what it is—and now designs with that truth in mind.
