A course by Mijal Zagier
Mijal Zagier is a graphic designer specializing in branding and packaging with over 15 years of experience. While attending university for design, she realized the structure of classes, schedules, and exams weren’t for her, so she dropped out and decided to learn on her own. As she looks back, she believes this was a stepping stone for what would be her preferred method of learning and working.
Mijal went on to work as a graphic designer, which allowed her to continue learning in her free time and taking on some freelance clients. Fast-forward to a few years later, she became a creative director for a marketing agency.
Today, she is the owner of her own studio, Bold Design, which has led her to work across the globe in Argentina, USA, India, and Israel. Mijal has also received a number of accolades, including Shutterstock’s Pixels of Fury and the Magellan Award for Creative Advertisement in Travel Weekly US.
