Passion fuels innovation, so I’m starting a design entrepreneurship blog on Medium and posting the same blogs on my website, these blogs will lead to more Youtube videos and presentations in person etc. Sharing insights on design processes, current trends, and my own design journey will not only position me in the industry, but also connect me with a larger design and entrepreneur community that would have been possible before community.

I began taking a step back to look, to critique and learn from how to improve my portfolio for Parsons. It was great to hear so many different perspectives and I appreciate them all. I have a lot to do… actually I have less to do, I need to make the designs speak for themselves and cut down on graphics!
