I spoke with Loumia Ferhat, PhD, about her path from the humanities into user experience research and consulting.

Loumia earned her PhD in Comparative Thought and Literature from Johns Hopkins University. In this interview, we discuss her academic background, her experience as a UX researcher, and the relationship between humanistic inquiry, qualitative research, and professional UX practice.
