REDO A PROJECT
Re-look at your projects with your “senior eyes”.

How does this project fill in your Designer Story? What project are you missing in your portfolio?

Read through all of this. Pick a couple of projects to think about/ write about following the following prompts and pick one project to redo.

What project do you like the concept but isn’t as refined as it should be, that you felt always was missing something, that you ran out of time... Why do you like it? Why should it be in your portfolio? Why is an important part of your story? You need only 6 - 10 projects in your final portfolio and every project has to be a great one. Take advantage of this time and redo or build out a project that shows a potential employer what you can do. What are you missing?
