​Join us for an evening of Notion chats & demos, learnings from industry users of Notion, free food, and some Notion goodies πŸ‘€!

​This UW <> Notion meetup will be a great opportunity to learn more about Notion & its capabilities, as well as hang out with fellow students & working professionals to chat about technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship.

β€‹πŸ‘‹πŸΌ Who am I?

​As a UW grad, I discovered Notion in my last few school terms and it dramatically changed the way I studied and ultimately helped me finish with a better academic performance.

​After graduating, I immediately noticed the transferrable skills I had developed through my organizational systems and habits I built through Notion. Thus, the theme for the meetup is:

​Personal productivity and organizational systems aren't just hobbies, they're skills!
