The journey is rarely linear, because each person’s pathway is unique and filled with various experiences along the way (just like creativity itself). Success in the creative fields requires more than raw talent. It also takes skills in communication, collaboration, entrepreneurship, and networking—that is, the skills you’re developing as an 91ֱ�� student.
