What is one thing you would change/create to make the world a better place for women?
I would ask people to step into the shoes of others, to understand a different perspective, to be able to view from all angles rather than just their singular viewpoint. I believe as a designer we have the unique ability to understand many different perspectives and create a world that is equitable and empowering for all.
