These last few weeks, we have been stripped away all forms of social interaction. Whether we are experiencing fear, uncertainty, anxiety, financial issues, managing household needs, we must stay home. It is advised that we self-quarantine.

What's there to do during this global pandemic? Here is something Erin and I have suggested for us to make our time quarantined and work as enjoyable as possible, but also fun and productive — a personality quiz. Find out more about myself, and feel free to answers these questions for yourself. It's fun, I promise.

If someone wanted to become a graphic designer, what path would tell them to take and why? There are different tracks in graphic design, like web development, animation, screen printing, UI/UX, illustration, creative writing, and so forth. I would tell them to start as quickly as possible by earning a degree, completing internships, and start developing a portfolio and reach out to different agencies/professionals and ask for feedback. These steps will help individuals know where they stand, where they want to be, and how they can continue to develop the skillsets to get there.
