AVL UX is back. Same energy, even more momentum.
Description:
The first meetup made one thing clear: Asheville has more UX, product, research, and designers than we usually get to see in one room.
So for event two, we’re getting into how real product problems are actually solved.
This time, Aktiga’s Rachel Stickels will share about an ongoing project to support Western North Carolina’s only homeless day center. We’ll get a behind-the-scenes view into their research methods and collaborative design process, followed by a Q&A.
What to Expect:
- Quick welcome and casual networking.
- A 30 minute keynote from Aktiga.
- Audience Q&A.
- Drinks, name tags, and networking afterward.
Who's welcome?
EVERYONE!
Designers, researchers, product managers, developers, founders, students, career-switchers, and anyone curious about UX or how products are shaped and built.
Come with questions. Meet more of Asheville’s UX community. Leave with new connections, practical ideas, and a clearer look at where this community could go next.
