Listen "Conversation w/ Recent Design Graduate, Graduating During COVID, From Graduate to Professional"
Episode Synopsis
**Guest audio/microphone issues. I contemplated not posting because of the audio issues, but, IMO, the content is valuable enough to post, and good enough to schedule a “PART II” so stay tuned (subscribe & 👍🏽) for a follow up. Furthermore, below are timestamps in case you want to skip around**
My FIRST interview!...well, it's more of a conversation that started in a coffee shop (shout to Deke's in Delray.) She asked me about a local design firm that she recently applied to. This is where the discourse began, but becoming a design professional during and post COVID was the TANGENT. As we were talking I stopped and asked if she would like to continue the conversation on OH Tangents and...here it is!
Straight from class to the cast, Brandan Craft, a visual communication design professor continues his thoughts, instruction, stories, and TANGENTS regarding topics relating to art, design, and tech.
