To new beginnings
Yesterday marked my last day and longest stint ever at work. It was my first job after I pivoted from architecture in an agency where I was their first hire as an Interaction Designer. However, that didn’t stop us from delivering website projects, work on products, and even projects of scales that were above and beyond what the agency had never thought of working on. A holistic approach to any brief made the agency’s domain expertise grow over time. The credit goes to the enthusiastic team and their dedication to creating some really fine work that was purpose-led, not limited by scale or domain, and driven by form, followed by function.
I leave the place with a lot of learnings in design, technology, art, and leadership. There were good learnings that I will be taking forward and there were some that I won't. As they say, every experience, good or bad, counts. And it only has helped me grow as a person.
