Learn how to create digital experiences that resonate with your users
UX design is one of the most in-demand roles today and, as brands understand how much it impacts their overall strategy, it can only continue to grow. Ethan Parry has been working with major brands such as Meliá Hotels International, SEAT, and Dunia, evangelizing the UX design universe in Barcelona, Spain. He also 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).
In his first Domestika Basics course, Introduction to Adobe XD, Ethan goes through the entire UX design process, giving his students a complete understanding of how to build a website on Adobe XD, one of the leading software for UX design today. In this course, he focuses on the research, methodology, and overall UX strategy that accompanies UX design, which is just as important as the design itself.

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.

La explicación del curso me ha parecido muy buena. Los conceptos están presentados de una manera clara y accesible, lo que hizo que fuera fácil seguir el contenido. Además, los ejemplos prácticos utilizados a lo largo del curso realmente ayudaron a aterrizar la teoría y a comprender mejor cómo aplicar los principios de UX en proyectos reales.
