Devon Skidmore · Product Designer

I start by watching how people actually work, then remove the steps that slow them down. Most recently, I was the founding designer at Prolook.

How I work

Principles I design by

  1. 01

    Start with understanding

    Great design starts with understanding. Before I solve anything, I work to find the root problem, so what I create makes a lasting difference.

  2. 02

    Validate before I commit

    I test ideas early and often with real people, scaling my approach to fit each project's timeline and limits.

  3. 03

    Serve people and the business

    I look for the solution that serves both the people who use the product and the business behind it. Success means users feel capable and the business moves forward.

  4. 04

    Make the team stronger

    I work side by side with engineering and product, give and ask for honest feedback, and help the designers around me grow.

About me

I love learning about and understanding people.

I'm a product designer in Springville, Utah, with more than seven years of experience across streaming, e-commerce and internal tools. Before design, I spent three years running a recreation therapy department, which taught me to understand people before trying to help them. That still shapes how I work.

Outside of work, I make things by hand. I sew costumes and build furniture from scratch, and I bring the same patience for craft to every product I design.
