<p>&#8220;If you look at some of the best, most inspirational practitioners in our field you’ll see that they think of their work, not as a job, but as a calling. They see the impact of technology on people’s lives as important. They feel that good design makes the world a better place — and that bad design can make life miserable&#8230; So my advice is: find your passion, pursue it and your career will take care of itself.&#8221; &#8211; David Travis</p>
