I have academic and professional experiences in the fields of photography, marketing and administration but since completing my undergraduate degree, I had not been certain how to make the most of these skills through the opportunities they have led me to. I have since learned, however, that maybe it is not about what opportunities these […]
Reflective Personal Development Journal
Just before the spring semester began, I sat together with my peers to share and discuss our 2020 goals. I focused on resolutions for the year that would help me develop my character and also adopt working habits that would compliment professional ambitions once I begin seeking work in the real world. This included things […]
Kingston Trade Fair
Team Innox has reached yet another milestone! Through our struggles with branding and product development, we had still managed to produce our display for the second trade fair. This time around, the pressure was especially on as we were pitching and engaging with judges and the most honest of them all: the citizens of Kingston. […]
Methods of Listening
As much of my background and work experience is in administration, being a good listener was probably the most essential skill needed as a part of my job. Referring messages and often liaising between departments and colleagues was a major part of my role in most of the offices I’ve worked in. I would often […]

As I mentioned in the past, identifying our target customer is still an ongoing issue in need of solving. We’ve had some […]
Acquiring New Skills
Work on my brief is gaining momentum and with February off to a quick start, the design process of this campaign is approaching fast! When I had viewed all of the briefs back in January and saw the deliverables I kind of panicked when I saw it would involve a video submission. As a photographer, […]
Message and Appearance
We’ve reached one of our most anticipated milestones, the trade fair! In the days leading up to the event, our team faced many rough patches and obstacles. Communicating how we’d prepare for this event was our biggest challenge and so far has been the largest lesson learned in terms of team collaboration and time management. […]
Evolving with the King
Over the last two weeks I have gradually gotten to know the Burger King brand. I’ve uncovered some useful insights about the company through interviews with the CMO which have been quite helpful. This week used the second round of class stand ups to further share our findings and continue the exercise of critiquing and […]
