Human Centered Design, also referred to in its abbreviated acronym, HCD, is an approach to problem solving and commonly used in design and management. This approach engages the people who experience the problem throughout each step of the design process to creating something better. Why is this useful!? Because it enables true co design and when used in the workplace... oooh! It’s magic! Laura Janisse and I have partnered on several HCD projects in the people program arena in an effort to bring a better work experience to those inside companies.

An immigrant woman kicking sociatal expectations to the curb to fulfill her passion for life: to be in the drivers seat, be in the ocean and shred the nar nar on the reg!!! Whoop! I dare you to listen to today’s show and try not to be completely inspired. Van is an important mentor to all of us who want to pick up the side hustle that we haven’t started yet. She took her work experience into her own hands and began an adventure into the fashion industry that’s brought her joy, laughter and, of course riding more bomb waves....
