About Me:
I grew up in Honolulu and moved to the mainland for school. I am passionate about the user experience and the importance it has in the development or redesign of a product, website or application. I currently reside in Washington and work for a user centered design agency. I graduated from the University of Washington in 2010 with a masters in Human Centered Design and Engineering. I am interested in meeting people who do UX and hear about their experiences in Hawaii.

    Welcome Dawn! Thank you for your note. There are actually a lot of local companies doing interesting UI work including Ikayzo (my company), Sprout, iLovePhotos, Referentia, Digital Mediums and Oceanit. We have a user experience group you may want to join and a GUI Meetup that gets together once a month.

    Ikayzo, Sprout and Digital Mediums are doing a lot of work with Adobe Flex. Other hot UI technologies include WPF and Silverlight on the Microsoft side and JavaFX on the Java side.
