Resilient leaders know better. They embrace the zigzag. They find wisdom in the detours.
Think back—when did something that felt like failure end up preparing you for something bigger? What did that moment teach you? Growth hides in the squiggle.

Branding
Branding isn’t built in a studio—it’s built in the moments between meetings, at networking events, and even while waiting for your latte.

Designers aren’t just visual thinkers—we’re translators of imagination.
When you can turn drawings into dialogue, every presentation becomes a partnership.
How Humor Can Lighten the Room
A smile can make your design pitch twice as memorable. Humor, when done right, isn’t about being a comedian it’s about being human. A little laughter reminds everyone that design is supposed to bring joy, not stress. So the next time you walk into a presentation, bring your sense of humor along with your fabric swatches.

So true! I need to look more around corners and curves than trying to see a straight line. Thanks!
That is so true. I’ve made some paintings that have seemed like monumental disasters at the time. And then, I realized that the paintings weren’t quite so awful, even if I did feel that I failed. And I remembered that FAIL=First Attempt In Learning. Then I applied what I learned from the Monumental Mistake, and the next painting made me really happy.
