Hey, I’m Ruan — an Engineer, Designer and Product Manager at Pusher. I care deeply about UX, UI and delivering impactful work that is win-win for the business and our customers. That’s why I work in a new cross functional team (agency-esque) called the Workshop — our mission is:
To support, elevate, and connect the ideas of others; to create and act as the custodians of the Pusher identity, and; to create powerful systems that inform and scale our impact.
On a daily basis, I’m having really thought provoking conversations (I would say that though, wouldn’t I), and wanted to start sharing my thoughts on various subjects to trigger discussion, learn new things and allow my assumptions to be challenged.
I’ve never written a blog or shared my thoughts like this externally before, but I wanted to push myself to try something new. If nothing else, at least I’ll have a great documented list of ramblings to look back on 😂 .

Whether you want it to or not, every word you use, line you draw or interaction you create communicates something. If nothing else be intentional about what you create.

Life is full of lessons—some we choose to ignore, and others we act upon. This lesson is one that I’m personally acting on, and my team are the catalyst.
