I had the pleasure of being a guest on the UNQUIEWAYS podcast hosted by Thomas Girard. I had such a blast answering his introspective 20 questions! It really gave me a chance to craft the messages for the next generation of designers. Give it a listen!

This is the most important (and underrated) career advice:
Build a reputation for figuring it out.
At every step of your career, you'll be given a lot of tasks you have no idea how to complete.
Imposter syndrome will inevitably set in—you'll wonder how you can possibly be expected to do this thing that you've never done before (let alone do it well!).
There's nothing more valuable than someone who can just figure it out:
• Do some work
• Ask the key questions
• Get it done
If you do that, high quality people will fight over you and your career will accelerate.
