I am not an artist, but I am a designer. It took me a long time to get over my imposter syndrome -- for far too long, I thought that to truly be a designer, I had to be a better artist, but I was wrong. In the words of economist Herb Simon, “Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.” Yes. That.
Sometimes, when I am working with other people to create those preferred situations, we are unfortunately separated by distance. That used to be less frequent, but today it is our everyday, as we are forced to work remotely to keep people safe and healthy. Does that mean that our quest to design new solutions to problems should stop? Of course not!
