Visual Communication

When I started my first career, I found that I would make drawings while communicating with others. When there were complex issues to discuss, sketching out simple diagrams helped to gather all the ideas and to come to a decision on how to proceed. From here I stared a journey to better understand visual communications. As I learned more about visual languages, I became more confident in my communication skills
