Date: September 28th Join us for our quarterly Shindigma: a speaker series focused on different parts, practices and possibilities within the design and development community. We focus so much in the tech industry on the polished and shiny work we do but rarely do we ever show the work and time we needed to get us where we are today. This quarter, Figma is hosting a lightning talk session about the struggles that four designers faced along their individual journey and what they’re working toward today. --- 116 New Montgomery Street - Floor 9 6:00pm - Welcome / mingle time --- Bradee Evans (@bradee) Alice Lee (@byalicelee) Jeremy Goldberg (@jeremygoldbrg) Jenn Julian (@hellojnnn) --- 🍿Snacks We’ll have drinks and pizza along with some other goodies and since this is on a Friday, we decided to make it a little cooler by inviting Boba Guys to bring in some fun beverages. --- 🍻Mingle Time If you’d like to chat with someone from Figma about upcoming features, you can do that during the first half of our mingle sessions. Let us know when you want to chat and what you want to talk about via this nifty form we pulled together: https://goo.gl/forms/0MT8GRqzFF2ClheH3 --- 🗝Code of Conduct Figma is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neurotype, physical appearance, body, age, race, ethnicity, nationality, language, or religion.
