“We all have mental models: the lens through which we
see the world that drive our responses to everything we experience. Being aware of your mental models is key to being objective.” Elizabeth Thornton

Adapting to the device and future devices
“Don’t design for everyone. It’s impossible. All you end up

Clear the way with triage
Create a welcome mat
Knitting experience into everything
What is today, won’t be tomorrow
Create a warm welcome
Remember being a beginner
