Our guest is Alexis Gonzalez, a Chicago-based graphic designer, and Chicago Graphic Design Club programming team member.
In this episode, Alexis speaks with host Christian Solorzano about her introduction to graphic design through a computer program she learned in the first grade and her thoughts on what the responsibility of a graphic designer is. She shares insight into how her identity as a Mexican-American shapes and influences how she sees the world — and how she seeks fulfillment in freelance projects outside of her day job. As a lifelong soccer player, she also discusses how soccer teaches her life lessons centered around community, discipline, growth, and much more.
