What are some hard skills you’ve learned that have helped propel your career and earning potential?

Fresh out of school all I knew was print and static digital design. Over the years I had self taught myself UI/UX, video editing, and 2D motion design. Having these skills in my toolkit has allowed me to move ahead and more than double my salary in 3 short years.

I’ve been stagnating for a while now, but I’ve been eyeing learning Cinema 4D and getting into AR design as my next skill set.

Any advice on being a leader for the first time? I got hired to run a small section of the agency and have a couple of amazing designers but I’m feeling massive imposter syndrome. They are both so well spoken and I know I bring value but sometimes I feel like I’m not good enough. I really want to develop as a leader and mentor.

The best follow up you received from a candidate?

Any ADs make the switch to copywriter? I can write pretty decently, I love coming up with ideas/concepting and I just don’t have the knack or love for sitting on a computer and editing comps or designing some stupid IG post anymore.

I am increasingly overwhelmed by the amount of content, movies, shows, pop culture references, websites, innovations, news stories. How do i stay relevant and informed but also sane?
