Today we celebrate episode #200 with Dennis Field, who was our first guest when the podcast started in 2014. Dennis is the brand specialist at InVision, and the founder of Happy Patron. We talk about branding — the buzzword of the century. How do we define it, and how do we apply this knowledge to UI/UX design? What is the user’s role in your brand’s story?
