Last night I was a guest speaker at the SFFAMA Workshop. There was a small group of us and we discussed portfolios and reviewed future opportunities in the industry. I spoke about how to make your portfolio look professional and how to be successful in the industry. The number one thing a designer needs is the passion for the industry. If you have the passion and the dedication, you will be successful in the industry.
A highlight of last night was that I met Gwendolyn Wright. Gwendolyn, is a business consultant that helps people learn how to build their business. It was crazy because we both were guest speakers and we both have the same last name. Maybe somehow we are related? I wonder. Regardless, I loved networking and meeting new people. It was exciting to share some thoughts with young new designers and models. If you would like to know more about the evening, please see below.
