Not only do artists and designers help us see the world in a different way through the poetic input, their work is also very proactively creating more vibrant communities. They homestead and improve neighborhood through the arts work movement. Arts can be a center of community development... MICA is a tremendous anchor institution. They punch above their weight to make a social impact. That’s unexpected of an art school.

- Sammy Hoi, MICA's president Proud to be starting my second semester here!

Timely New York Times article out today with the stories of a few Yazidi girls who have escaped enslavement by the Islamic State. Just published my first MFA project Narin's Kit to call attention to this issue. No aid organizations currently focus on rescue efforts for the >3,000 girls and women who have been kidnapped and forced into marriage and slavery by the Islamic State. Created at the Maryland Institute College of Art graphic design MFA program

Milton Glasner rebrands the climate change movement but Joe Romm, editor of Climate Progress, explains why it fails point by point (the earth is warming and it is not dying, just transforming into a non-human-habitable planet, which is even scarier) A reminder for all science designers to be very careful with what they communicate...

The best part of designing a brand is seeing it grow even better under the direction of other designers! Excited for a whole new era at NYU Abu Dhabi (though sad to be half a world away)
