Hello Designer

If this is your first time getting our newsletter, and you want to see past issues, check out our new archive page! 

The beginning of the year is always a busy time here – ours was full of goal setting and planning for a productive year.

Something we encourage all designers to do is to attend conferences and other industry events — learn, collaborate, and connecting with other designers is a great way to stay sharp! Confs.tech has a great list of Design/UX events all around the world, I hope you can get to some of them.

Finally, we are looking for designers in Los Angeles and Recife, your referrals are greatly appreciated!

P.S. If you got subscribed by accident, or are no longer interested, please do unsubscribe, we don't want to be a nuisance. 🙂
