      • Staying current with the latest design trends, techniques, and technologies, incorporating them into your work
    • Client engagement—serving as a contact who demonstrates an understanding of their vision and translates it into compelling digital solutions
      • Able to present designs internally and to clients, effectively articulating the rationale and potential impact. Artfully discussing alternative solutions, thinking flexibly about how best to meet the goals of the client and their users.
