Ep.117 Nick Longo – The Wonderful World of Branding and Design

My guest this week is a fellow designer and podcaster, Nick Longo. We first met at Adobe Max 2017 and I was a listener of his podcast, Deeply Graphic Design. Nick is a man who wears many hats and wears them well. Designer, brand specialist, instructor, mentor, podcaster and business owner. We talk about the balance of all those responsibilities and the thing about branding that makes us both fascinated with it. Nick is a great, informative and intelligent guy and this was a very enjoyable chat about graphic design.
