Outstanding design doesn’t happen in a vacuum:
• Collaboration
• UX Best Practices
• Curiosity
• Strategy
• Data
• Never Stop Learning
I’m Penina Finger, a strategic thinker who grew up in one of Los Angeles’ first woman-owned design studios, surrounded by professionals passionate about type, color, composition, and communication. Even then, better design revolved around strategy, empathy and research.
Over time, and with increasingly complex platforms and bigger datasets, the need for deliberate processes has given rise to exciting possibilities for better serving people and the planet.
