Truth be told, I’m not a great designer. I’m pretty good, but not great. What I am great at is more important than executing great designs. I know how to listen to what people are looking for.
Get Organized Already
A lot of success in graphic design depends on being organized. How else do you think your beautiful design gets seen by anyone else but you?
Media 101
Lies are not differing views. Deception is not debate. Disinformation not discussion, factually disproven information no matter how many times it’s repeated is not worth considering. America has not figured this out.
Raise The Threshold
Project launch for Campaign Zero:
Felony theft thresholds are the dollar amount that determines when a theft becomes a felony. These amounts are dangerously low across the country and seriously outdated. We believe that people should not go to prison, and face a lifetime of consequences, for stealing a cell phone.
Campaign Zero Impact
Project launch for Campaign Zero:
Since its inception, Campaign Zero has designed and launched multiple research and advocacy projects centered on data and evidence-based solutions to ending state violence in this country.
Justice for Samuel Celestin
Project launch for Campaign Zero:
On April 11, 2019, Samuel Celestin suffered a severe crisis at his home. He became disoriented and unaware of his surroundings. His mother and sister called 911 for assistance in getting Samuel transported to a mental health facility. Samuel’s mental health was disregarded by police.
Ad Club
Last night I spoke to the Ad Club at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Shared my words of wisdom and such. Like this nugget: graphic design breaks it down and shouts it out loud. The message it shouts can be anything really. And I was asked some very fine questions by the students. Done virtually, because pandemic. But still, good times all around.
