About Peter Glanting

I’m Peter, and I love to build fun and creative experiences that connect people. Diving into details to solve complex problems, I become the spaces between screens, bridging the gap between companies and their users. I'm curious by nature and fun by choice. Thanks for stopping by! You might be wondering how I became a UX designer. Well, pull up a chair! I've always liked to tell stories and communicate ideas, which I did for many years as a cartoonist and illustrator. These fields require an exceptional degree of precision, as well as effective and engaging communication skills. And when a local art department called for a designer, these skills served me well for many years. As time went on, I wanted to grow as a designer. As I began to research how to improve my design chops, I discovered that the designers I most admired were in UX. The more I looked into it, the more I was drawn to the emphasis on storytelling that other design fields lack, as well as the empathy inherent in UX design. It became inevitable at that point that I would be UX designer. If this story has moved you, feel free to email me. If you resist its poignancy, still email me, please.
