Susan Greenfield (User Experience Designer, Infusion Development, Canada)

I love working in Blend because it turns me into a next-gen designer/integrator - a hands-on participant in rich UI implementation. No more “lost in translation” issues between myself and developers...and being able to see the XAML change relative to my design is great for those of us who like to dabble in code.
