The phone you scroll through, the car you sat in, the pencil you use to write, they were all designed by someone who considered both their aesthetics and function. In our November Passion Speaker Series, we will be exploring the personal life, thoughts and insight of Dr. Victor Martinez, a product and industrial designer (and product design professor at Kwantlen's Wilson School of Design)!

The talk will take place on Friday, November 26 from 4-5 PM on MS Teams. RSVP here to get the MS Teams link!
Deadline to RSVP: Thursday, November 26 @ 11:59 PM
**Make sure to check your junk/spam folder for the MS Teams link!**
