HAVE THE CHALLENGES OF 2020 CHANGED HOW YOU THINK ABOUT GRAPHIC DESIGN AND DESIGNERS?

The challenges of 2020 were scary and caused uncertainty, but I’ve been inspired by the resilience and positivity coming out of the creative world in such a gloomy time. I think this year has proven that designers occupy a powerful position in the world, and they’ve done many wonderful things in an effort to piece it back together and unite us all. I’m proud to call myself a designer.
