A quick #sketchnote of my "Day in the Life of #UX" for a sharing with @techladiescode I did yesterday!
It was a surreal moment, receiving my graduate certificate and medal through the mail. Thankful for the journey @SVADSI dsi.sva.edu/blog/2021/06/con…

Helpful reminders!
If you’re a designer or PM developing products in a specialized domain (e.g. healthcare, gov, science...), working effectively with internal subject matter experts is an essential skill. Some key principles I teach my clients & teams: 1/
"An invitation to co-build communities of public feelings (...) Our principle would be, "We care, therefore we survive" An important reminder of the politics of care, and how it needs to be reimagined- as an affirmation to its universality, our interdependency and mutuality.
Check out Dr. Chad Shomura’s lecture for the Design Studies course, Cultures, where he talks about the emotional dimensions to making, creating, and being. @creativeinquiry @hellochadcat buff.ly/3h66EUL

I’ve seen first-hand how much my fellow coursemates have poured into their thesis, and the heart and soul they have for the communities they’ve worked with. It’s often mission-based, with so much of our personal values ingrained into the work.

Community-centred design and social innovation is a messy journey, navigating ambiguity, building trust and empowering relationships, while introspecting our positionality, power, and biases as designers in larger, complex systems.
