How To Explain UX to Old Fuddy-Duddies

Patrick Michael Balo

Creative Director @ Ace Saatchi & Saatchi Manila

Patrick Michael Balo has selling dreams and hopes alongside milk, phones, medicine, and food for the last 16 years. Before that, he spent time writing and directing events that were veritable case studies in organized chaos and even dabbled in the TV and film industries as the “guy-who-got-things-done”. For the past year, he has been utterly confused by words like UX and UI but has since seen the light and can spout said words without stumbling over them.
