It was a pleasure to talk with Rachel Moriarity (aka the Queen of Color) about her journey into the design world, which has many parallels with my own. Rachel shares some great advice for those who are just beginning to build their design careers and especially for those who are coming in from a different industry. We talk about putting yourself out there as a designer, pricing your services, diversifying your offerings, and much more!
