Adam Zeiner - Interaction Designer - Design Institute for Health | LinkedIn
I'm a designer by vocation and an avid avocational organizer focused on "soft" systems and networks, integrating futures literacy into design praxis, information architecture + visualization + sharing, and supporting more intimate communities of practice. I'm grappling with the balancing act of combining interaction, service and strategic design across varied levels of analysis and abstraction.
