☀️ Jo’s favorite design quote:
“As the people who craft experiences, we have a profound responsibility to not take for granted the limited time that people have on this earth and to make that time as painless, as empowering and as enjoyable as we can, because this is all there is, and it’s up to us to make it better,” by Aral Balkan.

On Creativity
To me, creativity means a non-linear path. It is about being curious and constantly asking whys. It is about the iterative process that challenges you all the way.
For my past nine years as a designer, I have worked in digital products, video productions, exhibition design, media arts, and consulting.
