"If you want to make cool things, you got to learn the tools it takes to make them."

She also advocates for the value of typography, craft, and collaboration. Enjoy this entertaining talk from the archives of our Vancouver chapter and heed Jessica’s call to “just grab the reins and f*cking do it.”
