In this first episode with Tony Sanchez as an official co-host, we were honored to be joined by a design legend.
Toke Nygaard is the Chief Creative Officer at Zendesk. With more than 20 years of experience designing digital experiences, Toke Nygaard oversees Zendesk’s brand and product UX/UI. In this role, he is constantly developing and building the Zendesk brand with his global team of passionate creatives, keeping the product experience true to its origins of being simple and easy to use.
Before joining Zendesk, Toke was a founding partner of one of the largest pioneering design communities, K10k.
