Description
In designing a manifesto that reflects my creative vision in design, why I am a designer, and what I stand for, I was faced with a physical handicap in which I injured a finger on my hand. I used this personal experience as a rule of thumb in life, don’t take health for granted, and look at the brighter side of situations.
