As a creative, I was able to maintain my vision by first asking myself a couple questions: “Does this still align with my vision?” “Does this feel right?” because I’m a firm believer of trusting what feels right for you, no matter what the result may be. I also make sure to filter out the feedback, applying only the ones I believe would enhance my work. Because of that, I was able to also slowly discover who I was as a designer –– finding out my market, what I enjoyed working on, and what designs and aesthetics worked for me. I’ve come to realize that I like leaning more towards surrealistic, quirky, and provocative designs, and I like separating me as a designer to me as a person, kind of like how a publiuc figure separates their public persona with their private one. I believe doing so allows me to fully express my creative ideas without compromising who I truly am outside of my work.
