Isabel Urbina Peña: Everyone Else Is Already Taken
In a country where the creative force is close to one million, how we present our work to the world and who we are as designers is as important as the work we do. The strategy for making a lasting impression should start with our own identity. Isabel Urbina Peña will talk about how having a unique approach when presenting your work can make you recognizable and set you apart. Like Oscar Wilde once said, “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
