Today's guest is Amanda Weedmark. She is a designer at an architecture and engineering studio in Vancouver BC but also freelances as Amanda Weedmark Designs. She is also the designer for wood stickers which you can find in REI and MEC.
During this episode we talk about:
-her creative and crafty childhood.
-nostalgia and the books that I used to love that also showed her at a young age what is possible with graphic design.
-why and how Disney has been so influential to her.
-a printed proposal project she was a part of that really wowed their customer and what they did.
-the challenge she faced early in her design career that caused her to leave design for 3 years, and what she learned from it.
-why her freelance business and the journey to build it is something she is so proud of.
I also really like Amanda's answer to the ask if forward question. Kinda funny actually. @aweedmarkdesigns
