Interaction design can improve the human condition. We’re supporting World Interaction Design Day (#IxDD), an annual initiative to advance the craft. Join AIGA Gainesville in the Made@UF space inside Infinity Hall on September 24 to discuss Trust and Responsibility in design with Michelle Brownstein and Cat Meschia, from Three Five Two.

Michelle Brownstein is the Associate Director of User Experience, and a UX designer/researcher on a development team at Three Five Two, an innovation and growth firm. Though she has worked in the web industry since 2008, she has applied usability principles to everything in her life since long before she learned the phrase “user experience.” She has worn many digital hats over the years, from interactive design and coding to UX research, strategy and usability. Backed by a M.S. in psychology, she has helped clients like Wells Fargo, Cummins, 3M, Fifth Third Bank, and Cox Automotive create lasting connections with their customers.

Cat Meschia is the Director of Design at Three Five Two. With a background in research based design, she help teams identify strategic opportunities for companies and brands. She has worked on innovative industry solutions as a product designer, personified brands as a photographer & videographer, and created visual identities for clients as a graphic/web designer. Most recently, she has been working as a creative director, integrating these past experiences and leading multidisciplinary teams to develop growth driven campaigns.
