Rachel Walker

Growing up in Silicon Valley, Rachel was immersed in the tech world from a young age, and her background in psychology became a natural segue into user experience research. Spending the early years of her career working for Google, Apple, and Amazon gave her an appreciation for innovation and user-centred design. The UK stole her heart during a Master’s program in London, and she never looked back.

While on a foray in the world of Consulting, Rachel led the establishment of KPMG UK’s AI Centre of Excellence, focusing on putting in place AI best practices and informing their wider-AI strategy. Rachel is passionate about advocating for user research’s role in ensuring that the AI transformation has a positive impact on people’s lives instead of exacerbating existing societal issues.

Rachel is currently busy establishing a new UX Research function at Wireless Logic and immersing herself in the exciting world of the Internet of Things (IoT).
