“You can’t have million-dollar dreams with a $10 work ethic.” Summer is winding down, and roles are opening up. Continue to position yourself for your transition to a new corporate role or taking the leap of faith in a freelance career. I’ve added some more certification programs from NVIDIA. Next week, we will do a Silent Studio. What you need: - The ability to join FigJam (you need a Figma account). - Screenshot(s) or a link to what you’re working on.

I'm conducting AI Opportunity Audits and they are running longer than anticipated (some people are long-winded). Focus on articulating your design decisions you made on your current case study. Next week we will do a mock Silent Studio! I will send out what you need for that in the next few days.
