Get To Know Our Coaches: Timothy Achumba
We sat down with Timothy Achumba to talk through his career, which spans from individual contributor to hiring manager to design leader. He digs into what it means to design with AI rather than just for it, why taste matters more than ever, and how he helps senior designers tell a sharper story about their own work.
