Kim’s expertise in threading together and synthesizing the vision of brand, creative, and product technologies will be just a few of the insights shared in this session.
When Kim’s not nerding out on color theory or micro-animations, she’s hopping around San Francisco and Oakland with her husband and precocious toddler for playdates and adventures.
