Owner, Ways & Means, Inc. — Chicago, IL
My favorite part about being a designer is I get to spend a great deal of time in a number of professions outside my own. In order to tell someone else's story, I get to become a part of that story. So in a way I have been lucky enough to be a doctor, a surgeon, a philanthropist, a muppet, a lobbyist, a banker and a chemist to name a few. And while that may seem like more than enough to fill a typical work day, I have still found time to be first and foremost, a designer.
