ANDY PARKER For over 20 years I have built a career in technology and Digital design. I’ve worked in some of the world’s best design agencies and was a senior member of the British Government’s Government Digital Service. Navigating a career in the fast-pace of the web did not come easy. Self taught, I flunked out of school, lied my way into college and got fired from quite a few jobs. It wasn’t until I was in my late 30s that I was diagnosed with Autism. This is where my journey into becoming a coach began. My passion for music, and art not only guided me to a career in digital design, it influences everything I do. I’m a grassroots champion, I love supporting people that take the DIY ethos of the punk movement, and build the things they want to see and invite everyone along for the ride. https://theuxcoach.com Reflections is a video podcast, simultaneously broadcast on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and many other outlets.

We each get to choose our own hero's journey. But there is commonality in our quests for personal happiness, and it's in those beliefs that we come together here. Me personally? I live in a bus (for now). My thing is exploring life like a nomad. Travel, adventure, and wonder. (Yea, I'm a little bit ADHD and I kinda need constant stimulation). Welcome to The Pirate Wanderer! I'm Rick, your host and life-guide. It's so nice to meet you ... and I can't wait to see what great things we can do together. Produced by Mastering The Second Half LLC
