We know what you’re thinking. Designing for user experience would be so much easier if there wasn’t all that messy information to be presented. It’s hard to organize that stuff. We get that. Really, who could possibly deal with it?

Abby Covert can!

Abby’s an independent information architect living and working in New York City. She specializes in delivering a collaborative information architecture process and teaching those that she works with along the way.

She speaks and writes under the pseudonym Abby the IA, focusing on sharing information architecture content with those working within the design and technology communities. She is the author of How to Make Sense of Any Mess, a book about information architecture for everybody. Apparently the answer to "Really, who could possibly deal with it?" is actually “Abby Covert, along with everybody!”

Abby teaches information architecture at The School of Visual Arts and General Assembly NYC. She is the current, well-organized, not-messy-at-all president of the Information Architecture Institute, a global non-profit membership organization focused on empowering IA leadership, currently serving members in 73 countries.

Stay tuned for further announcements about details of Abby’s session at Fluxible.
