You don’t have to be a creative director — that’s my job — but I do want to know:
 • What visuals inspire you
 • What you’re drawn to stylistically
 • What kind of presence you want to portray (powerful, soft, editorial, approachable, bold, elevated, etc.)
 Drop links, screenshots, Pins, and references with zero pressure or perfection.
