This is my first official guest on the podcast and I am super excited to introduce Giovanni Dueña. He is a phenomenal human and a skilled creator and entrepreneur.

In this episode we talk about the mindset that breeds inspiration and new forms of storytelling.

Below is his bio from LinkedIn.

▫️I’m an experienced design leader focused on creative direction and strategic branding. Raised in sunny southern California & branded in the Texas sun.

▫️I’m presently passionate about cross-team collaboration on end to end design, holistic user experience, strategic product design & building design-driven innovation into digital and physical experiences that feel like the first sip of your morning pour over.

▫️In the past I successfully grew a human-centered design agency; working with startups and design-driven companies to craft concepts, brands and the systems that scale them.

▫️My design approach is informed by challenging ideas beyond a status quo, fostering user empathy and evolving how we fundamentally approach modern design from concept to completion with a balanced but bold simplicity.
