Welcome to the first UX Salon Halifax of 2020. We’re back with a new co-organizer (Welcome Tonya Canning ), great topics, and the same winning snacks and prizes .

Michael MacMillan currently leads up his own SEO consultancy, MacMillan Search, and hosts the monthly SEO meetup SEO Brunch. Since 2009, he has worked in specialist and leadership SEO roles both in-house and in agencies.

Michael will be talking about how UX influences SEO, and expose some myths about the relationship between the two.

Ruby Ho is a User Experience Designer at ResMed with ten years of experience across different industries including software, banking, retail, and healthcare. She is passionate about user research and is an advocate for user-centred design.

You will learn:
