On this week’s episode, design leader and vice president of creative at brand experience agency FreemanXP Katie O’Brien joins the show for some real talk on the life of a creative captain. Katie discusses her every-which-way path in design, which led her to ultimately tackle events and live experiences, and the life-shaking moments that rocked her free of a narrower, more control-oriented mindset toward a career flow that has taken her to some of the top agencies in the world, where she delivers the creative goods for Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, and today’s best brands, all while approaching every project like it’s her dream job. Listen in for advice on first career moves and what Katie looks for when hiring for experience design. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
