EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED TODAY!


"Using Design Thinking to Create Your Dream Life"

Join us for life lessons from the Stanford Design Lab on how you
can use design thinking to hack your life and achieve your dreams!  In this hands-on interactive workshop, Dr. Constance Staley will break the philosophy down into five simple things you can do to better design your life:

1. Be curious.
2. Try stuff.
3. Reframe problems.
4. Know it is a process.
5. Ask for help.
 
With change likely to be a growing presence in all of our lives, the basic design principles outlined in this workshop will prove invaluable in helping us to create the kind of life we want.
