“Creativity is a crushing chore and a glorious mystery. The work wants to be made, and it wants to be made through you.”

THE INTERVIEW
I always get asked questions by aspiring design students about my journey. Where did I start, what keeps me going, what is the process of how I create…
I recently answered these questions and more in an interview for Creativepool.
WHAT I WAS ASKED...
- How did you get into the industry?
- Where are you based now and who do you work for?
- If you weren’t in your current industry, what would you be doing?
- Can you explain your creative process?
- What’s your secret to staying inspired and motivated?
- What’s the work achievement you’re most proud of?
- How do you recharge away from the office?
- What advice would you give to other aspiring creatives looking for work?
- If you could change one thing about the industry, what would it be?
“I feel like this is a pretty amazing final result and one interview I’m definitely proud to have published on Creativepool. I’m also sure our readers will find it just as inspirational and creative as myself.”

I touch on talent vs hard work, diversity in the industry and how non-linea the journey can be.
