Feeling honored ❤️ 🙏 @Brandersmag issue 39 is live! 👀 Yesterday, I was presenting about "being a Graphic Designer" to our elementary school for career day. Note: the term branding is too vague for 3rd graders. 😅 Today, I'm honored to be sitting front and center on the cover of the latest Branders magazine. As a college art school student, I had no idea how my love for all things visual and creative would coalesce into a passion for branding, building a team, and serving clients. In the past 24 hours, I've relived that journey through a child's eyes, drawing in elementary school, to a business owner getting a spotlight for his perspectives. What a journey. Thanks @Brandersmag for trusting me to hold down the cover of their latest issue. cc Luis Carolina 🙏 📌 Issue linked in the comments below. --- Huge shout-out to the other talented contributors in this issue... Scott Fuller, Steven Picanza, Grace Dawson, Alex Center, Fabricio Mancebo, Izzy Poirier, Sophia Scheibeler, and anyone else I missed. Also to my @FocusLabLLC team, whom I get to represent.
