The idea behind a design is the best part
I love coming up with ideas. Put me in any meeting and I will have an idea to contribute. Collaborating, concepting, and combining efforts are my favorite part of the design process. I look forward to working to come up with the best solution for any project or problem. That’s what design is. Problem solving. Bringing your education and experiences together to solve any particular issue to get the best result for the client.
Working for Rotary International has broadened my idea of social good design. It has taught me that designers need to be responsible for the right solution as well as the culturally relevant solution. It is important to pay attention to cultural differences and sensitivities in order to reach the audience you intend.
