THE GOAL
Bridging the fragmented design community
As a designer, our career paths aren’t siloed. We might have started in graphic and web design, picked up UI design skills and now work in user experience and product design. Our goal is to build stronger local design communities, fostering learning at the intersection of multiple disciplines.
