You may have taken note of the three words at the bottom of this website.
I firmly believe it is important to know who you are as a person, which in turn, can often tell us who we are as designers. Below each page, the words honesty, teamwork, and creativity have been listed. These are the values I stand by.
HONESTY - I firmly believe it is the best policy. In every aspect of my life, design or otherwise, I tend to want to be as honest as possible. I have found it is better to be honest than trying to work my way around and tell a lie.
TEAMWORK - I think everyone can benefit from being a team player. The ultimate goal of every endeavor we take in the arts should be for the betterment of the group, not just the one.
CREATIVITY - The best piece of advice I was ever given was to quit worrying about how to make it happen and just take a chance. We often get bogged down with the technicalities and stifle our own work. I want to work and encourage others to let their drive come first, and we can figure it out later.
