Sketchnoting 101: Intro to Visual Thinking for Design Thinkers
Details
Portland Design Thinkers is excited to announce an evening with April Reissmann; Sketchnoting 101: Intro to Visual Thinking for Design Thinkers.
Sketchnoting isn't art. It's communication.
Accessible, visual communication focused on clarity and transferring of knowledge quickly and efficiently. It’s a skill that can benefit everyone and brings joy to those who see and create sketchnotes. As Design Thinkers, we often have to communicate how and why this seemingly "unorthodox" method of problem-solving is so effective. Visual thinking can help win over your audience and get their buy-in sooner and with more dedication to the process. So grab a paper and pen and join this hands-on session to get started sketchnoting and learn how visual thinking can benefit your communication, work, and overall life (for real!).
About April :
As a person living with Bipolar, Anxiety, and PTSD, sketchnoting gives me the ability to turn chaos into clarity. Being able to clearly communicate thoughts, needs, and goals is a priceless gift that I feel compelled to help spread. My mission is simple: to help. Pairing visual thinking with human-centered design allows me to truly understand who I'm serving and how to best help them (usually help themselves). My work ranges from private coaching to enterprise consulting. I live, work, and travel around the world with my husband and trusty service dog. This lifestyle gives me my unique perspective regarding inclusion and accessibility that I bring into my mission of helping every day.
