Hello Everyone,
I graduated a year ago with a BFA in Jewelry Design. I work full time as a designer at a manufacturer and love it but am really interested in branching out to designing more types of consumer products. I've had some success with small businesses doing freelance work but there's still a long road ahead of me if I want to be considered an industrial designer.
I'm trying to find a mentor but am really unsure of where to go. To my knowledge the IDSA used to have a group in my state but it has been gone for about 10 years now. Does anyone have any advice on how to find a mentor? Maybe some stories of how you found yours?
Thanks!
Peter
