As Director of UX at LogicMonitor, I lead a dynamic global team of designers and researchers who are on a mission to deliver the best, most useful, most usable observability platform in the world. Before this role, I led digital strategy at Marquette University where I drove digital branding and marketing initiatives and oversaw the people, the processes, and the technology that powered them. I’ve brought human-centered design to every role I’ve held, whether designing, developing, producing or leading because the work has to work for the people it’s meant for. My super power is getting cross-functional teams together to solve messy problems in new spaces — I’m deeply into UX for AI (and AI for UX) right now.

Designers have a rich history of collaborating. We elevate creativity and innovation by actively including others in the design process, and more passively, by taking in the lessons and ideas built by those before us to guide our practice. But has a new collaborator emerged? When AI can gather context and generate ideas, questions, and observations in response, how does this change creative collaboration? Does it change? Can AI make us more creative? Or does it narrow our thinking? In this workshop, we?re going to take a nuanced look at AI, human creativity, and design to explore human-AI co-creation without blindly giving into the hype. You can expect to learn about new interfaces for creative collaboration and introspection, discover potential futures for designers, and use experimental tools and frameworks to design AI solutions that promote human creativity, rather than have the AI 'perform creativity' for us. Join us to co-create the future of innovative, adaptive, and inspired design.

As we advance into 2024, Generative AI (GenAI) continues transforming how we approach and implement technological solutions, marking significant strides in enhancing user experiences. This workshop offers a deep dive into the latest GenAI technologies and their broad applications, showcasing their potential to revolutionise interactions and interfaces. Participants will explore current innovations and discuss predictive insights into the future advancements of GenAI. The session includes interactive discussions, case studies, and practical exercises to demonstrate the effective integration of GenAI into various operational workflows. Attendees are encouraged to bring their laptops to participate in the hands-on activities fully. We will also address ethical considerations and potential challenges, preparing attendees to navigate the evolving landscape of generative AI. Join us to uncover how GenAI is shaping the future of technology across multiple sectors.
