Coffee & Creatives

In the debut episode of Coffee, and Creatives, we sit down with Ruby Fusigboye, a Junior Designer at Sheridan Student Union, a former Design Intern at Cossette, and past Co-VP of Events for the Sheridan Interaction Design Association. Ruby shares insights from her experiences in design, from balancing agency work with student leadership to navigating internships at top firms.

We discuss the realities of breaking into the creative industry, the role of mentorship, and how community involvement shapes a designer’s growth. Along the way, Ruby offers candid reflections on overcoming imposter syndrome, embracing creative risks, and what she’s learned from working at the intersection of advertising, UX/UI, and student-driven initiatives.

Whether you’re a design student, an emerging creative, or just someone passionate about the ever-evolving world of design, this conversation is packed with real talk, actionable advice, and plenty of inspiration.

☕ Tune in, and let’s talk creativity.
