About Arredondo Design

Arredondo Design is the consulting practice of Leigh Allen-Arredondo (that's me). I'm a UX practitioner, evangelist and instructor with over 20 years of consulting, in-house design, and team leadership experience. I've driven the experience strategy and design for startups and Fortune 500 organizations, and I actively mentor, train, and teach.

I'm also an experienced facilitator, moderator, panelist and speaker, and the founder & host of the popular UX Cake podcast, a podcast focused on topics that help UX pros become more effective in their work and careers.

Facilitating and training

​I’ve been mentoring and training in the UX industry for over 15 years, as a UX professional and as an instructor in the classroom, facilitating workshops with professionals, and mentoring up and coming designers. As my own career has progressed, I’ve become increasingly invested in helping the experience design field grow and mature through developing talent and evangelizing design thinking methodologies.
