This is a free Local Group meet-up
Attendance is free.
You don’t have to be a member to attend.
What are Local Groups?
Local Groups will expand your career network—whether you are interested in learning new skills, finding job opportunities or looking for a new employee.
A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meet-Up Details

Oops. Error re am / pm. 3rd time's a charm! Moving out a week to accommodate an additional member! Hi IxDF Minneapolis, anyone want to meet up and network over coffee! Specifically, talk about how you've made the transition to freelance, or what your approach is! I'm just beginning. It's going to be an informal, friendly meet-up with fellow UX / design folks!

If you have a better suggestion for where to meet, I'm open to other options!

Meet-Up Discussion

Anne Thompson
Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Coffee+freelance journey held on Feb 27, 2019. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.
Anne Thompson

Hey there Kitty. I'm still keen to meet up, whether we get any more takers or not ... just starting out in freelance and would love to hear about your experiences. Let me know if you have any preferences re where to meet. Otherwise, I was thinking Birchwood in Longfellow?

David Wilharm

I'd love to meet, but Wednesday nights I'm busy. How about either another 4-6 day or daytime meeting?

Anne Thompson

Hi David, thanks so much for connecting! There is someone else interested, but can't see where that is. Would next Thursday work for you? 7th? LMK and in the meantime, will try to locate the response from the other member! Cheers, Anne

Anne Thompson

PS -- I requested email updates, but somehow missed your response!

Anne Thompson

Hi Kitty, you OK if we move this to Thursday 7, same time? Let me know. Cheers, Anne

Rothanak Chhoun

Hi Anne! Sorry I hadn't realized that I wasn't listed as attending, but I should be now. I have a conference at the McNamara Alumni Center that runs until 4pm, so I may be a little late in my arrival. Looking forward to seeing everyone who's available!

Anne Thompson

Hi Rothanak, no problem. We're going to shift it out a week to hopefully accommodate David. I'll update accordingly. Cheers, Anne

Kitty West

Hi Anne, Just responded via LinkedIn. Yes, next Thurs 3/7 works fine.

Anne Thompson

Great -- I've updated the event. Hopefully this will be communicated with you!

David Wilharm

I'm not sure yet if 3/7/19 will work. I'll let you know for sure by this time tomorrow.

Anne Thompson

Hi all, just back from a quick trip to Denver. Checking in that you're all still up for catching up at Birchwood cafe tomorrow? Again, let me know if you have a different preference re venue. My cell is 612-859-0258 if anything should change between now and then. O/wise, will look forward to meeting you and sharing experiences!

Cheers,

Anne

Anne Thompson

Hi all, Kitty and I will be meeting at Birchwood Cafe at 4 pm if you can make it. If not, will look forward to catching up at some future IxDF event! Cheers, Anne

Anne Thompson

Thanks Rothanak and Kitty for making it out yesterday. Great to meet you both and hear about your UX journey! Sorry you weren't able to make it David, but will keep you posted re any next meetups!

Meet-up attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meet-up by clicking “Attend this meet-up” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meet-ups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
