We have gender, identity and design on the table today. This is a special episode of On the Table with Ashley because this week we speak with Principal Designer of Âme Atendre, Dylan Williamson (they/them). Join us as Dylan shares a bit about their thoughts on gender outside of the binary, why education around pronouns and gender is so invaluable, and how good design makes for good connections.
