overall look and feel of the design is very critical. I constantly
work with our Graphic Designer Debbie Magill to make sure
the content, the advertisements, and the overall look of the
newspaper is sharp and looking good to the best of our ability.
If the paper doesn’t look good we don’t look good. We all work
together as a team to make our paper looking good!
Q) How important is the creation of a document or
presentation that doesn’t have errors in logic?
A) It’s all about credibility. We can have errors but not often, it
is very important not to have errors. It’s kind of like a black
mark on your record. We are all humans and we make
mistakes, as hard as we try to get the facts right, sometimes
we get them wrong. You have to keep in mind that human
errors can transform an image, a perception of the world and
of ourselves. At the end of the day, you have to be responsible
for your own credibility.
