Sunni Brown - SE03 / EP01

1 hour

Sunni Brown leads off GIRL POWER Season 3 of the Sketchnote Army Podcast!

Trained as a graphic recorder at the Grove by visual thinking Jedi master David Sibbet, Sunni has found her own path to incorporating game design, design thinking, and improv into her visual thinking practice, to create fully immersive services for her clients.

Listen as Sunni and I talk about her path to where she is now, the impact and importance of community, empathy, and more.
