  6. The Craigslist Job - Liang Shi

    The Craigslist Job - Liang Shi

    Today we sat down with Liang, the Creative Director at Soma Water in New York. We talk about full-time vs freelance work, ego in design and the importance of showing your results rather than showing your work. Liang is hilarious and has sort of done EVERYTHING! No really, she has experience working in a ton of different spaces - ads, social media, photography, design, product design and coding. She shares how she ended up where she is now, and how she defines her title as Creative Director. We talk about a lot of the ego and insecurities that come with working in design or art, and how to not take people's opinions so seriously. Liang was super open to talking about her own experience navigating through different jobs and feeling as though something was missing. Liang had a bunch of success while working freelance. We talk about the results that can come from good design and the importance of showing these on a resume, rather than stating the work you did. Since she's a big advocate for "doing what makes you happy", we talk about creating Fun Fun Dinners and Field Trips. We also get a preview into her new venture - and incredibly well-designed, well-thought-out café that she's hoping to create in the city! Liang also tells us about her first website she created to idolize, but also mock, her preteen idols online.
