This is Dan Mall. He is the founder and director of SuperFriendly. A one man shop who works alongside other talented designers whose key objective is to help organizations with creative direction and design.

Dan has his own apprenticeship, where he has devoted his time to teaching not only valuable design skills, but life skills as well that will increase self awareness and self discipline. As of July 3rd, 2017, I became a Superfriendly apprentice. YES!

It wasn’t easy becoming one of Dan’s apprentices. I had to make some tough decisions. I mean, that’s a part of life right? It’s up to you to make the right decisions. Some are hard and others are fairly easy.

Now that I am finally in, the journey begins. Am I willing to push through all of the difficulties that will come while in the program? Or will I quit and go back to the boring, non-challenging job I had before?

I don’t think so!

Here is my pursuit of becoming an designer.
