AEA11 Seattle: Afterword
Tuesday, March 29th, 2011
How could anyone write an afterword if there is no foreword/prologue/plot, I don’t know, but I’m about to attempt this wizardry on this ill-kept blog.
What really inspired me to pick up the pen—I mean, open my blog’s WordPress dashboard—isn’t just the fact that I just attended An Event Apart in Seattle, but that this experience was a completely different experience from the last time I attended AEA. It was to be expected; it’s been almost five years since then.
I’m not going to write about what I learned on a technical level (you can see that from A Feed Apart); rather, I wanted to write about something more personal than just devious applications of CSS3 and best practices for content strategy. I want to write about what I experienced emotionally, and what a personal trip this had been for me.

I am a twentysomething web and graphic designer located in sunny-but-oh-so-smoggy Los Angeles, California. I love games of all sorts (video, board, RP, etc), eating, designing, reading, writing, drawing, and eating! I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2007 with a B.A. in English. Now I'm attending Cal State LA, working on a Masters in graphic design. Nice to meet you!
