From Obscurity to Designing Experiences for Millions

There are plenty of horror stories through the pandemic that, though feeling like lifetimes past, happened just a handful of years ago. I had taken a giant leap of faith after finishing The 12 Rules for Life in a Microsoft cafeteria in Redmond, Washington. I was in one of two places on the Microsoft campus. Either in a giant mostly empty warehouse with a tiny desk comically placed by a wall, or else at another building sandwiched between the outdoor dumpsters, the humming of a server room, and surrounded by a chain linked fence; no heat or air conditioning. Just the wafts of waste every now and then being carried through the loading dock by a gentle breeze. To close my office, you just needed a padlock to slide the metal together and lock it. If you’ve seen the show Silicon Valley, it was where a former CEO was sentenced to as a form of punishment, except theirs was nicer.
