Episode Description
On today’s episode of Make + Design, Carina talks about the progress that designers make over time. She talks about taking a somewhat embarrassing (for her!) trip down memory lane when she recently searched for herself on the internet. Over 15 years of search results, she saw a lot of progress in her design work. She had a similar experience when she taught college, seeing the huge improvement that design students made from their first year of college through their senior year of college. While going to college is a great way to get a design education, Carina doesn’t recommend college for those transitioning into a second career. For those looking to start a second career, finding a great, year-long program that teaches specific skills is the better way to go.
Carina invites all of us to go back and look at our design work so that we can see the improvement and progress that we’ve made over time. She encourages us to stick with it because good things will come as we continue to work and improve.
