Making Connections - Graphic Designer Amber Asay

Working for agencies and studios as a graphic designer since 2012, Amber Asay hated that she couldn’t interact directly with her clients. She also couldn’t show off her work in a personal portfolio, since her creations were the intellectual property of her employers. Even if she could have, she didn’t take much pride in the type of corporate branding work she had been doing.

Now she’s connected to her clients and her peers, slogging away at it, but riding a high as she charts her own path.
She still doesn’t quite have a grasp of the work-life balance. Her work often is her life, but she has a plan...

Great thoughts on working a full-time job while growing her freelancing practice, connecting, putting your work out there and more.
