Hello. I am Brian Rodrigo Llagas.
I am Design Director at The Edison Agency where we help businesses and brands make meaningful connections, positively influence behaviours, and create lasting change. I recently finished my Master of Design Futures degree at RMIT University with a focus on using a human-centred design approach to the design process. I am particularly interested in using empathy and agility for brands and products to resonate more with their consumers.
