There's something magical about an all-women group. I'm sitting across from a group of women. They're doing group work for a college class. They were strangers but are talking like old friends. Sharing happy news, challenges, etc. No judgment, no apathy, just love and support.

Does anyone use a physical usability testing lab anymore? I'm trying to decide if we should invest in ours (it's very outdated) or repurpose the space. #ux #uxresearch #usabilitytesting

Is it strange that I'm having fun creating an undergraduate tech comm minor? I love these admin tasks for some reason.

I'm thinking about using my upcoming discourse analysis class (master's level) to conduct a research project and publish with my students. Any advice?
