I usually receive emails asking about volunteering, organizing events, speaking, and getting involved with the association. ### For mentoring, apprentice program, and getting involved For questions, comments, and feedback about [[DIA Design Guild]], email me at [email protected]. I usually receive emails about being a mentor or an apprentice, questions about when the apprentice program will be available, and inquiries about a project, usually referrals from friends in the community. ### For consulting work for projects and products If you want to talk about hiring me for a gig or individual consulting, email me at [email protected]. I'm not available for full-time work. I am only available for part-time consulting due to my professional commitment to supporting the future of the information architecture and user experience community. However, I may participate in projects that financially support [[DIA Design Guild]] and mentor apprentices in the program. ## Social Media I have plenty of #noteType/socialMedia and #noteType/onlineProfile Published: 2023-09-03 Last updated: 2025-01-11
