Awesome thread! How I came to be here seems like a long and winding road. But when I look at it in hindsight, it's actually more straight than I thought.
I came from an art background at a very young age. Others considered me "gifted" I just thought kids were suppose to have such artistic abilities. I then developed my interest in design cars, to designing the interiors. It then evolved to designing everyday objects in the Industrial Design program in Carleton University. After failing the last year, I actually got bored of design until I was introduced to an awesome last year/major project working with engineers. It was a project for developing a ground control system for a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle). This project got me hooked as it was extremely challenging AND worthwhile. My UI design skills were a good foundation to build upon in later years (now). I always had a curiosity towards doing the unconventional and pushing the limits. I guess what I'm trying to say then, is I was always a Designer. And I continue to evolve. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
