On this episode, we talk with Leisha Muraki, a Director of Brand Strategy at RORA, and a Lead in Brand Experience at MDMD. Leisha talks about how graduating in the middle of a financial recession forced her to take risks and work abroad in search of job security; how her experience building a career and practice in Venture Design shifted the judgement of design from aesthetics to strategy; and how the most important currency in the world is not capital but connection, including the connection with one’s self.
