A lot of time and detail goes into design, and getting to physically hold the finished product when a project is complete creates a wonderful sense of accomplishment – made even better when the client is just as happy as you are!Beyond design, the world of marketing is fast-paced and exciting. There is never a dull moment in this ever-evolving industry. It can be hard work, but it’s fun and it’s worth it!How have mentors helped your personal and career development?Judith Maloy, Director & CEO of Polaris Direct, was the one who decided to take a chance on me.
