Cap Watkins, Head of Product Design at Lattice, was catching up with a former top-performing designer who was afraid other designers were mad at her for getting all the “cool” projects.

What made those projects glamorous and desirable was her and how she approached the work. There’s that old nugget about making your own luck and that is something she excelled at. She had a unique ability to take really hard or nebulous problems (both design and team-related) and morph them into something amazing that got people excited. Instead of getting discouraged, she’d respond to friction with more energy, more enthusiasm. In so many ways, she was a transformative presence on any team and project.

In other words, this designer cared and made the best of all her assignments.

At TrueCar, data is our lifeblood and visualizing that data in a compelling way is important. Finding that compelling way takes time. We've produced a number of infographics recently. Some have been more involved than others, but all as a way to find our voice in telling a story through data.
