Today we go live with IDSA’s Executive Director Chris Livaudais! His passion for design education and outreach within the community led him to a position on the board of the Atlanta Chapter of IDSA for the past eight years. He earned a short school certificate in experience design in 2012 from Domus Academy and a bachelor's degree in industrial design from Auburn University. At IDSA's 2016 International Conference in Detroit, Livaudais spoke on Objects that Talk Back. We had a great conversation about design education, the evolution and future of IDSA, and meaningful relationships. Thank you Chris and IDSA for always supporting what we do!
