Nine months of conducting #uxresearch with #uxdesign and #engineer has led to the launch of an updated #Google Home App 🎉

👀 Check out the vertical video scrubber that I conducted #uxr on.

Excited to announce that I’ve joined @Google as a #uxresearcher. I’ll be conducting #uxresearch on developer innovations. My research will be on how to designing and innovating for engineers - a community I focused on from my #PhD work at @UCIEducation

@annafagre “Growing STEMs of the Buried Seeds: Developing STEM Identities of Mexican American Girls Across Time and Space.” I incorporated the proverb “they tried to bury us but they didn’t know they were seeds” nodding to inequality in STEM education but also empowerment and resilience.

I heard my friends on Twitter were asking about my cousins around the world! It’s true, I have a lot of bird cousins in different countries. Here’s a little bit about them:

And now I have my 2020 goals. Better late than never.

No more being a complicit model minority. Direct actions for allyship for Asians to challenge anti-blackness and white supremacy. #Asians4BlackLives #BlackLivesMatters

If you want to throw shade on all the co-authors that did zero work, replace all instances of We in the paper with "We". e.g.
"We" painstakingly collected two years of mouse data.

[David Liu @liudaviddw]

I’ll be talking about the research hour glass in #userexperience. I’ll take about how I define the problem space, ask researchable questions, and develop insights for #uxresearch studies. https://t.co/G1kJrcZj0S @theSGVux

[David Liu @liudaviddw]

Also trying to merge together data sets and transform it from long to wide. That took me days

[Seth Rosen @sethrosen]

Them: Can you just quickly pull this data for me?

Me: Sure, let me just:

Video games? The arts.
Comfort novels? The arts.
Streaming TV? The arts.
Chillout music? The arts.

In our most dire hours, art keeps us sane, lights the dark, ensures we stay human.

We turn to art for help. So make sure you help the arts through—and on the other side of—this.

My mother just received an extra credit assignment for one of the classes she is taking: type a one page response to the following question: Why should I NOT go on a trip for spring break? #AcademicChatter #coronavirus

@ElJulianLozano Should have came to Missouri

[David Liu @liudaviddw]

Visited @tiktok_us's Upskill Lounge where I learned about design & product. I have never engaged in a #designsprint before but I see how the #uxresearch is part of the design process by understanding user needs at the beginning and evaluating the design at the end of the sprint.

[David Liu @liudaviddw]

@ZingerLearns @KRenaeP Let's continue to take a #decolonized perspective of #STEM & challenge Western and Eurocentric notions. Everyone is a scientist b/c we engage in the PRACTICES of science across all aspects of our lives to make meaning. Unless everyone has a labcoat as part of their daily wardrobe

[David Liu @liudaviddw]

Important work about centering the problems of practice of our stakeholders and communities.
