Interactive Design for Mass Transit

Join Lan-Chi Lam, Interactive Design & Strategy Manager for Metro Communications, to discuss how Metro is turning to the digital arena to improve public transportation in Los Angeles.
The Interactive Design Group at Metro is responsible for customer-facing websites, as well as ensuring Metro is in the social media, mobile platform, and developer community. Leading a new team at Metro for the last two years, Lan-Chi will go deep on two themes driving their current work: information relevance and customer-focus. Come out and mingle with the best and brightest in the LA interactive design community and enjoy tasty food & beverages courtesy of LA Metro.
