In this panel discussion, we'll explore the mindset of UX designers and the ripple effects that designer biases can have on the general public's experience of a given platform.
How does UX (user experience) Design influence our daily lives? Can good UX design improve our mood? Can bad design ruin our day? How can a designer's personal biases impact the user experience, and what checks and balances should be in place to account for the influence of a designer's lived experience?
