About this event

Ever wondered what it's like to track carbon emissions through one of the world's most complex supply chains? Most designers think environmental work means sacrificing craft for impact. Alex Kim, Senior Product Designer at Apple's environmental team, proves that's wrong.

Join us for a chill conversation, where we'll unpack:

  • Why environmental design gives you a front-row seat to multiple domains you'd never access otherwise

  • How to identify human problems in abstract, data-heavy work like carbon tracking

  • The reality of MVP development when user needs conflict with business priorities

  • Convincing skeptical stakeholders, transitioning into specialized design work, and breaking into the environmental design space.

Grab a coffee ☕️ (or a matcha 🌱) and join us to learn how constraint-driven design leads to better products, what user research looks like when your users are supply chain managers, and the frameworks Alex uses to balance managing priorities at scale.
