Boo!
Your adventure has taken a mysteriously exciting turn. You have found the Emerging Creative Circle, a community designed by a small studio to empower you for the journey ahead. This community will entertain, inspire and educate you to worry less about getting ahead in the design world. To kickstart the growth process, we are bringing you a free online series, Designers are Scary! Take a deep breath; you were born to take this on.
Caleb George
Caleb started off studying cultural anthropology at University of the Arts, London which led him into ethnographic research. This took him to the far East where he conducted field research on artisanal crafting techniques around fabric and textile manipulation. After a break from field research, Caleb found himself wanting to come back to the design research which led him to his education in UX. Caleb is currently a Behavioral Scientist at Dell, and a Career Coach at Springboard.
