One small step for us.... One smaller step for BAA...

First call was today. I was invited last-minute. We want to remain flexible and available as much as possible. Ditched some low priority client work to attend. I am clearing our schedule for the next 6 months as well.

The BAA site rebuild represents a very clean slate and fresh canvas. While the clients are not as well-versed or hip to modern web design lingo, I appreciate their candor and ability to know when they don’t know. I also KNOW that the BAAFDN reps will know what they want when they see it.

Initial design mockups will be so very important. I have got to make sure we have solid templates and design systems in place. I am very happy the group supported the development of a style guide!

The development team lead (Steve) is going to be a huge asset and keystone here. Him and I should get together ASAP. I also got a really positive vibe from the person from AFH (Kelsey?) representing the design side. I am giving myself 14 days to get the 3 of us in a meeting to hammer out some details. I am REALLY hoping we have an accessible prototyping application; keeping my fingers crossed for Figma as the service in cross-platform and quickly becoming industry standard for UX/UI.

Lindsey is interested in using this connection, client, and opportunity to help the company she works for find more meaningful ways to support the communities they operate in.
