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.

Meetup Details

Hi IxDF Chicago, let’s meet up and network over coffee! Share UX design insights and resources, discuss UX problems you are facing now, or just chat about anything else. It’s going to be an informal, cozy meetup with fellow designers!

1. You have any questions about the career change or creating an online portfolio?
2. Struggle to find a job in ongoing interviews?
3. Want to learn more about the design for people with accessibility and the common tools and standards?

During the meetup, we can share our insights and help each other! I’m sure many of us have questions or are willing to share experience and knowledge. It is also important just to talk and find the understanding and know people have the same experiences in their lives)

Maybe you know local companies that need volunteer help from designers, and we can be involved in it?

Let’s meet, talk and see what opportunities we can get from it!

”It’s time to grow the Chicago Design community, and take a project to work on for social good!”

Location: Intelligentsia Coffee Millennium Park Coffeebar
Address: 53 E Randolph St, Chicago, IL 60601
Time: 11:30 am -1:00 pm

It is near the Millenium park, so it is a nice place to walk after the meeting or meet with families)))

Meetup Conversation

Mila Shumilina

Hi all! I’m Mila Shumilina - Senior UX Designer at Examity and UX Consultant at Doma. I lived in Ukraine but had to relocate to USA because of the war and happy to be here in Chicago - the city of my dreams)

I have experience both in UX and UI, working with USA-based companies for 3 years. But what I love about being a UX Generalist - is that you never stop learning) There will always be something more you have to learn, something more you need to practice, etc.)

Now I’m learning tools to check websites and mobile apps for accessibility standards, and searching for a local company to volunteer as UX/UI Designer.

Let’s meet! Please tell a bit about yourself. What are your goals and challenges? What would you like to discuss during the meeting?

I will be happy to meet the UX Design local community and grow with you!
