It’s almost time for Design Career Paths Part II on April 19th!

We’re incredibly excited to learn about the successes, failures, and decisions that shaped the careers of leaders in the industry. If you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, what are you waiting for? Get it here before it’s gone.

Leading up to the event, we wanted to get you a bit more familiar with our panelists and speakers. For part one, we’ll start with our speakers — Tom Creighton and Rob Hayes.

Tom Creighton

Previously, Director of Design @ Wealthsimple 💵
Founder, Reactive Arts

His résumé speaks for itself — with stints at CBC, 500px, Shopify, Wealthsimple, and now founder of his own company Reactive Arts, Tom is one of the most respected design minds in Toronto. In addition to that, he’s also a host of not 1, but 2 podcasts!

Founder, Foundation PM

It’s not everyday we get an expert in product management as a speaker! Rob is the Founder of Foundation PM (along with Joist and HEIST previously), working with CEOs/CTOs in early-stage and growth startups to help them scale. In the past, he’s been involved with growing companies you’re more than familiar with such as Ritual and Uberflip! Let’s not forget, he’s the other half behind the Framework podcast with Tom ☝️.
