Every journey is filled with failure, let's share the lessons learned from them.

This week we take a peak into my brain and that of other creative generalists. I explain my full design thought process, why I seem disjointed to those not engrossed in the design community and why I love to design all the things.  UX designer, Illustrator, Logos, Animations 3D, 4D, patterns, textures, podcasts, YouTube.  I do it all.  Why?  Because I love it, all of it.
