In this episode Catie shares how a budding career in industrial design was sidelined by an ah-ha moment that re-defined her life passion. We also discuss the impact that design has on the people and families whose lives have been compromised and how our design community can unite to solve the needs of our greater community. This episode is not only informational and inspirational, it is also a call to action. If you're looking for an opportunity to leverage your skills and resources to benefit others, this episode is for you!
