It's been a little while since our last 'Spotlight' series and it's always rewarding to feature designers, leaders who are excelling in what they do but usually are just part of the behind-the-scenes of a major brand overhaul or product releases.

Let's be clear. I really don't miss the days of home quarantine from the past year. I did appreciate the time spent with the loved ones but glad we all get to live some kind of a 'normal' summertime. With that being said, it's always rewarding to see how others had to cope with this pandemic and what needed to be done to actually stay sane.
