    So we used to have our photo studio at 450 W 31st for years and saw Hudson Yards emerge. And I lived on 433 W 34th so that neighborhood was it for my life for many years. We went to Golden City constantly until we sold the biz and moved to Chicago in 2018. Before the neighborhood blew up we used to joke that Golden City was the cafeteria for B&H Photo across the avenue. So happy to see this place still working hard to serve good, inexpensive food.

    Stunning office 😍Loved this video!! I was wondering if you have any advice in getting to an agency job as a self taught designer? As a self taught graphic designer, what exactly do you put on your resume to get hired.... Other than listing "proficient in Adobe suite, etc." I have a degree in something completely different than design (in education), so how do I get employers to look at me without formal education in design? I am worried that even before getting to the portfolio, they would just skip you because the resume wouldn't have formal design education on it.
    Would really appreciate some insight into this, thank you!!❤

    I do really miss my job. I was working for a design agency here in Sri Lanka and i was just starting with the age of 19. It was my second month working for the agency and days later some dudes broked into our house and took everthing that we had. I lost my laptop and i couldn't go back to work. I just miss my workflow and everthing so badly 😭😭😭
