I was on a UX Panel!
I have had some busy times around here. The most recent Michigan Usability Professionals’ Association meeting was just last week, and I was one of the panelists, talking about what makes for a great UX practitioner. I was honored and surprised that someone thought I had the answer!
It was a great panel session, though. It felt like it was over too soon, and I love opportunities to have to put my thoughts into words. Explaining things is always an opportunity for greater understanding.
I’m going “heads down” this week to do some deep thinking on my professional volunteering obligations, and we’ve got another great event coming up at the end of March. What I’ve really been slacking off on is figuring out if I’m going to try to be a contributer to this year’s Internet User Experience conference… I feel very close, but it’s one thing to have an idea and another thing to take the time to put those thoughts into words. But if I do, the reward will be great as far as increased understanding goes.
