experience
After admiring the MAYA studio's work for several years, I was so excited to finally work with them. My summer at BCG Platinion served as a deep dive into human-centered design's philosophical and methodological applications on a corporate scale. I grew not only as a designer but also as a researcher, consultant, and facilitator.
