Instructor
As a professional designer for 15 years, including being part of 3 successfully sold start ups, I've worked on a wide range of projects with a number of great teams. One constant throughout was hearing from co-workers: "well I'm not a designer, I can't make this look better".
It's my goal to show you: You don't need to be a designer to create great design.
And that is what this is all about. Showing how ANYONE can produce better looking Presentations, Documents, Reports, and Images by following practical and repeatable strategies.
I've put together a series of resources, posts, and lessons to show that managers, marketers, developers, business owners...everyone, CAN improve the design of their work.
This is Just Enough Design.
