What advice would you give your younger self starting out in design?
Focus on solving real problems, not just making things look good. Stay curious; explore art, tech, and psychology. Embrace feedback; it helps you grow. If you believe in your idea, build it. Collaborate early with developers and users. Learn the tools but value ideas more. Be patient; great design takes time. Trust the process, keep iterating, and never stop learning.
What is a non-design hobby or interest that impacts your creativity?
Watching movies is a non-design hobby that powerfully boosts our creativity. It enhances visual thinking, storytelling, and emotional awareness. Films expose viewers to diverse cultures, aesthetics, and problem-solving scenarios, inspiring fresh ideas and perspectives. This stimulation of imagination and empathy helps us as creatives think outside the box. We see movie-watching as an valuable tool for innovation.
