We are excited to announce An Evening with Eric Reiss on July 13th to celebrate the publication of his new book, Usable Usability: Simple Steps for Making Stuff Better— now available on Amazon. Eric is great presenter and CEO of The FatDUX Group.

Eric will be sharing his experience of how to understand user’s needs, techniques for exceeding user’s expectations, and a host of hard won advice for improving the overall quality of a user’s experience. The talk will be followed by a book signing and social time.

Eric Reiss has been meddling with design projects for longer than he cares to remember.
