I was stoked to get to meet designers and photographers at a AIGA networking event. Though the bar had poor circulation and gave the venue a stuffy atmosphere, the people were anything but. All very friendly and talented folk. Like me, some were looking for employment, only having contract or freelance work. Unlike me, they all had professional websites showcasing their work.
This is something I’ve been dreading doing for some time. I think it’s time to step it up. If I really want a job, I’ve got to crank it up a notch. I’ve been blogging for almost a year and have gone through about 3 re-designs. Though I’ve liked each one more than the last, I’ve never been fully satisfied (this one still needs some tweaks). I want to build something I’m really proud of, and shouldn’t be wasting my time doing anything less.
starting as soon as this weekend is over. Cause Friday night is no night to be coding.
