For Tracy, UX is about so much more than \u201cmaking pretty buttons.\u201d With over 20 years of web development experience, including work with Fortune 500 companies, Tracy\u2019s curiosity and love of problem solving has led her into many amazing opportunities. She has taught web development, design, and UX at several universities (including UW-Milwaukee, her alma mater) and is a nationally-renown public speaker. Most recently, Tracy co-launched the podcast Women in WP. Tracy is a drummer, bow-tie aficionado (obviously), and she could probably deadlift you if given the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Presentation Title: <\/strong> Is something not very usable or accessible?
