NOMADS: The HCI Podcast!
Connie and Sunny, two HCI grad students talk to professionals from diverse and rich backgrounds in the field of Human-Computer Interaction. As you see, we'd like to call ourselves NOMADS as we have been moving from place to place, away from our comfort zones, friends and family not only for opportunities and wisdom, but mainly because we want to make these societies more Equitable, Humane and Accessible through HCI and Technology! While HCI, Design and Tech are considered to be niche and fancy, I think we are responsible to create outreach about what we do and why it matters for all the 7 billion people(in the long run, of course).

What's it like working as a one-woman UX team when your users are also the very people you sit next to in the office? And what can you do when you're the only one dedicated to advocating for user experience? Join us as we talk about Darshini's experiences working at Samsung, Ford, and now at Ashley Furniture and her tips on how to navigate being the only UX'er in the room.
