Some Assembly Required: Shipping With AI

Portland Design Thinkers are excited to announce our next event with James Sheak: Some Assembly Required: Shipping With AI

What does it actually feel like to build something with AI?

In this session, James Sheak shares the unfiltered story of what it's actually like to build and ship an app with no coding background. Not by learning to code, but by figuring out a workflow that worked for him.

Practical, personal, and a little scrappy. Just like the process itself.

About our Speaker:
James Sheak is a product design leader with 15+ years at companies like DoorDash, Meta, Amazon, and Chime. He runs a coaching practice helping designers and founders push past generic solutions and find real creative breakthroughs. On the side, he builds and ships his own apps, including HouseHop, an iOS tool born out of his own house-hunting frustration. He lives in the Bay Area and splits his time between coaching, building, and his work at Microsoft AI.
