Bio
Natalee Baldwin
I've had the pleasure of knowing Brock in some capacity for almost a decade now and I cannot say enough good things about him. Brock approaches challenges and conflict as opportunities and has a way of communicating with people that leaves them better for having met him. I was thrilled to learn he's wanting to return to UX and I have no doubt that he will be a rockstar in his next position. He has all of the necessary skills learned through years of school and practice, but he inherently has the soft skills that you just can't teach. I cannot recommend him enough.
Will Leidheiser
Brock and I worked closely together in graduate school on research projects. He is a tremendous person, who is generous with the time he gives to others. He can easily build new relationships. Specifically, he mentored me when I came into grad school and helped me make valuable connections. He was extremely supportive of me when I came into the program.
