About Me

Hi, I'm Nico

To me User Experience design is not limited to the digital realm. The term product designer shouldn't be limited to building websites and digital solutions. I attend the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) studying User Experience (UX) and Industrial Design (ID), seeking to facilitate a more wholistic view of the User Experience Design methodology.

InFLUX Podcast

I started InFLUX with Varun Khatri! It is SCAD FLUX's (Future Leaders in UX) podcast about all things design and more. Every week Zachra Pradipta fills FLUX members in about any announcements for the coming weeks, while Varun (@thevarunkhatri) and I co-interview a new guest.

These guests include SCAD students, alumni, professors, and industry professionals they find interesting. The intention behind the podcast was to allow students and members to engage with FLUX outside of making it to events. With the Coronavirus pandemic, we realized we needed to have a much more flexible series of events, as people are Zoom fatigued!

You can check it out wherever you find podcasts, just search InFLUX!
