I've found there aren't enough resources for talking about what's important in design. Plenty of tutorials on how to make buttons, headers, etc. Not enough on explaining why something looks good, and why something else doesn't. I'm glad you liked the video, maybe I'll put some more stuff together like this. Rock. @Matt

I'd like to go into Account Management so it's not as important, though I have a lot of decent skills that I picked up along the way that really helped me make my ideas tangible (but ultimately far from a finished product). This said, I really found your presentation informative. It's always great for me to get down to the basics of anything I want to learn more about. I personally love the simplistic style you use. I found it really clean and effective and is one of my favorite design ideas. I learned a lot and am looking forward to learning more from your blogs!

I'd definitely do more of these talks if given the chance. A lot of the students were taking notes, I felt very teacher-like. Haha. I’d definitely do more of these talks if given the chance.
