  • Episode 30: The Lounge Strikes Back!
    Feb 24 2025

    To celebrate the end of Season 3, Mark, Kristen, Dan, and Lauren visit the Okay Team! Lounge, where they have drinks and discuss everything BUT graphic design.

    Subjects include the upcoming Season 4 of the podcast, some movie reviews, a little bit of reality TV, and gaming.

    There is a lot of laughter and geeky content with this episode, but they'll back in Season 4 with more design news, guests, and possibly an episode with a class of college graphic design students asking questions on career guidance!

    So sit back, relax, have a nice drink, and welcome to The Okay Team! Lounge.

  • Episode 29: VP of Design at Launch Scout, Haley Moore
    Jan 22 2025

    In this episode, the Team chats with Haley Moore, VP of Design, about her career path from designer to manager and how she came to terms with embracing her natural ability to lead projects and being comfortable managing a team of very skilled designers. She discusses taking leaps in her career in order to not lean away from her natural skillsets, even if they are hard to recognize, and being ok with the concept of not being the best at something.

    Haley also discusses the traits and qualities she looks for when hiring a new designer, including how to share a bit of yourself with your interviewers.

    Kristen discusses Bigfoot (again), and Haley unwinds with snacks on the floor to deal with burnout.
