What are your main responsibilities within your current role?
I think I kind of wear a lot of hats. At its core, it's mostly illustrations and exhibits and presentation graphics.
When working for the architecture firm, it's a lot of illustrating plans. Architects, landscape architects, and planners would draft their plans. I'd illustrate them to make them come to life.
So they could be used in presentations and submittals, and a little marketing too, for in-house. Then we started marketing, providing marketing services to our clients as well, which are mainly developers.
