[read more] Lean UX is a principle-driven approach for designing startup products. With Lean UX, teams collaborate better, make faster decisions, and act decisively with more confidence. By reducing long product cycles into smaller, shorter chunks and validating these iterations with people that will use our products, we gain the important information needed to avoid expensive development cycles that are laden with risk. The panelists features... Janice Fraser, Founder & CEO Luxr Janice is an entrepreneur and interaction designer for web and mobile products. During her 15 years in Silicon Valley, she has raised capital, founded both successful and failed startups, consulted to both large enterprises and early stage firms. Janice was cofounder of design firm Adaptive Path and served as the company’s first CEO. During her tenure, Adaptive Path tripled in staff and revenues, developed and sold a product to Google, coined the term Ajax, and transformed Adaptive Path from a lifestyle partnership to a high-growth firm. Janice has been a guest speaker at many conferences and universities, including Haas, Kellogg, Stanford, and the Presidio Graduate School of Management. Ljuba Miljkovic, UX Designer & Adaptive Path Alum I'm a scientist-turned-experience designer leading product and UX at a stealth San Francisco startup. Alum of Adaptive Path and creator of the Bay Area transit app, @transporterApp. Ellen Dune, Product Designer at Lumatic Ellen Dunne has been leading internet product design and development teams in San Francisco for longer than she cares to admit. She started out directing product design at an online travel company in the 90’s, ending in a merger with Travelocity. During a five-year hiatus from SF, she did consulting work, lived abroad, and then moved to NY where she taught at Parson’s School of Design. She was lured back to SF in 2006 by the founders of Dogster and worked there until 2010, leading a massive redesign of the Dogster and Catster sites before their acquisition by Say Media. In May 2011, she joined the team at Lumatic. She is a firm believer in the ‘build, measure, learn’ cycle and other key principles of the Lean UX philosophy, which means she is usually armed with a stack of sticky notes and a Sharpie. (She wishes her handwriting was nicer.) Tim McCoy, Product Strategist at Cooper Tim works to ensure UniversityNow delivers a world-class student experience throughout all our applications and services. Tim is an active participant and speaker in the agile and Lean UX communities. He helps develop and spread best practices to create balanced teams of design, development, and product management.
