He is speaking Sunday <a href=\"https:\/\/2017.toronto.wordcamp.org\/session\/wordpress-design-and-you\/\">afternoon at 2:30 pm in Rm 147<\/a>. His topic about user experience (UX) and the role played by site design. Let&#8217;s get to know him&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>My official bio says that I&#8217;m a UX designer who specializes in building insightful, creative, and usable digital experiences. That&#8217;s the nice, standard, boilerplate conference introduction I&#8217;ll always send (WordCamp Toronto being one of them).<\/p>\n<p>These days, though, I&#8217;ve been introducing myself through my Twitter bio where I say, &#8220;&#8221;[I&#8217;m a] UX designer by day, Indoor Cycling instructor by night&#8221;&#8221;. Yep, I&#8217;m one of those peppy instructors who make you climb, sprint, and dash for your life in spin class, and I&#8217;m a better designer doing all of it.&#8221; &#8220;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;WordPress, Design, and You&#8221;&#8221; is a roadmap to the User Experience (UX) design process. It&#8217;s where we look at the stages of a web design project and the activities that happen per stage.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the talk, I&#8217;ll be relating Jesse James Garrett&#8217;s 5 planes of user experience &#8211; strategy, scope, structure, skeleton, and surface &#8211; to the <!--more-->broader design process and look at how these elements could be of use to you and your next WordPress project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s tempting to think that UX is a time-boxed thing &#8211; that it only happens before development or only when a design project is happening.<\/p>\n<p>I want to tell you that UX is forever. As long as there is someone working through your website, app, or service, there will always be a need for making those digital products simpler and easier to use. It&#8217;s not a one-and-done thing, but a continuous process of improving, tweaking, and responding.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered what this thing called &#8220;&#8221;UX&#8221;&#8221; is and want to know how to do it, come to this presentation at get your UX on!<\/p>\n<p>Toronto is home to a growing tech sector. It&#8217;s no Silicon Valley. But we&#8217;re getting there (sans the super competitive streak among tech companies and employees). We&#8217;re a friendly bunch of design and tech practitioners, and the WordPress community is a piece of that vibrant puzzle.<\/p>\n<p>Connect with Jesse through his <a href=\"https:\/\/2017.toronto.wordcamp.org\/speaker\/jesse-emmanuel-rosario\/\">speaker profile<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Make sure you have your <a href=\"https:\/\/2017.toronto.wordcamp.org\/tickets\">ticket to #WCTO<\/a> before they sell out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jesse is one of our local speakers.
