Had a blast today at World IA Day Des Moines. Learned some new things, and had a great time giving my talk! Thanks for having me World IA Day DSM! #WIAD19 #cardsorting #ux

Yes, thank you to all the #wiad19 organizers and volunteers who made this a year of difference. May the efforts of these community leaders inspire everyone to bring it onward, pay it forward, and share their differences for a better today and tomorrow

For the last 3 years, I’ve been privileged to help carry on the tradition of World IA Day in Des Moines. This year, it’s my turn to pass on the opportunity to someone else. Let me know if you’re interested in taking the reigns. #WIAD20 #DesMoines worldiaday.org/call-for-locat…
