Figma Fridays has been a passion project of mine for the last year and a half. And I am so pumped that it is finally taken fruition! Working closely with the Figma for Edu team has been such an amazing learning experience, helping to ensure we are providing students with the most engaging and practical Figma education in SCAD's design communities. Although this is just the beginning, I am so excited to see how this initiative evolves.
