Happy fall, everyone!! Hive post-bac Olivia here.  Okay so. You know when you’ve got an incredible idea for a project, but it’s just out of reach? Maybe the materials are too expensive, or you need more accountability to actually put pen to paper. And you think if only someone would fund you to...

The Buzz: What More Can We Find? -

Some things are better kept separate. Cereal and hot sauce, loud sounds and early mornings, water and outlets, to name a few. But some things really are better together … peanut butter and jelly, loud music and rolled-down car windows, human-centered design and Visual Thinking Strategies. Oh, what...
