Featured Speaker:

Jason Kunesh

Jason KuneshBeing the first director of user experience in US Presidential campaign history presented a unique set of challenges, goals, and constraints. In Jason’s session on “Rules of Thumb for Design Chicanery from Obama for America HQ”, he’ll share best practices and methods that helped Obama for America build winning social, mobile, e-commerce and in person experiences for as many people as possible.

Tall tales, examples & plenty of QA to go around.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Jason wishes he had a great title like “gypsy beekeeper” or “wordologist” but has most recently performed as Director of User Experience & Product at Obama for America. You can often find him at the intersection of people and technology, advocating for elegant, simple solutions to gnarly problems. He’s at his best when helping people work together using sketches on whiteboards and real-life prototypes to communicate ideas.
