Innovation Leader | Product, Technology & Experience Design | Business & Brand Catalyst
Hi, I'm Andy Hooper. I’ve built and led holistic product and experience teams for some of the world’s most impactful businesses. Most recently for Intel’s largest business unit, my team and I shaped and launched industry-defining initiatives in deep partnership with Fortune 500 companies, including original research and the delivery of 0 to 1 products for the smart home, the new creator segment, the circular economy and extended reality (XR), worth billions to the business, our customers and our brand. I leverage a multi-disciplinary background to drive global strategy, employing digital storytelling and prototyping to build tools and teams that improve human-centric experiences and deliver impactful and engaging product offerings.
I firmly believe in the relationship between People, Product and Progress, and employing design as an essential element in shaping and launching modern product ecosystems at scale. As a champion of multidisciplinary design practices, I promote purposeful and sustained collaboration across design, engineering, product and marketing disciplines to deliver exceptional product experiences and connect customers with all touchpoints across the product engagement arc.
My passion for the product experience has led to international industry awards, patents and trademarks, and I’ve been fortunate to partner with global business leaders including Amazon, ABB, Blink, Cisco, Disney, IKEA, Intel, Marriott, Microsoft, SAP, and VW Audi to provide digital, physical and experience design solutions that elevate both the work and its value to the business.
Feel free to connect. I look forward to talking to you about my passions and skillset, what drives me as a creative contributor and leader, and how I can help you meet your specific needs.
