WHO IS SOMEONE YOU LOOK UP TO IN YOUR FIELD? EITHER TODAY OR HISTORICALLY?
I personally don’t look up to just one person in my field. This industry is full of creatives who have different ways of expressing their passions so it’s hard to just find one person to look up to since I find inspiration in so many creatives. Especially now with social media, I find a new designer whose work inspires me almost every day.
WHAT ARE YOU READING/LISTENING TO/WATCHING?
I’ve been watching the show Law and Order: SVU recently. I think it’s a great show to just have in the background while doing my work. Every episode deals with a different plot, which is kind of like how each task I work on while watching is different. It definitely keeps me entertained while I’m sitting in front of my laptop for hours on end.
DO YOU FEEL THAT DESIGN SCHOOL HAS PREPARED YOU TO SEARCH FOR AND FIND A JOB?
Design school has definitely planted the seeds for helping me become a strong designer and strong person overall. It gave me the resources and support I needed to be able to push myself past any boundaries I had. It was up to me to use these resources and support in the best way possible to continue improving my skills and confidence in my work so that I would be confident in my job search.
