Louis was a lead LX/UX designer making complex concepts simpler via the application of modern LX (Learning Experience), UX (User Experience), and visual communication to end-users.
He is a talented, pragmatic, positive, optimistic, and compassionate individual and a former mentor to students at RMIT University which helped them achieve their goals and kept him up to date with modern trends.
Outside of work, Louis pushes himself to the extreme with obstacle course races such as Spartan where he is a brand ambassador whilst raising a family with his wife and 2 children.
Additionally, he is currently drafting a book on how his near-death experience can help others overcome adversity in their lives.
A loss leads to victory, being fired leads to a dream job. I find comfort in believing that good things can grow out of tragedy.
Article 1 - My Hero's Journey, finding my way forward I am one to be eternally drawn to silence, it clears my mind, and soothes my soul but sometimes music comes in - we dance, we sing and we dream... Yours truly Today is Friday, and yes, cold again.
Feel the pain, feel the hurt - Just like fire, it cleanses the soul... Yours truly. The winter in Melbourne Australia chills me to the bone, the rain is a welcome relief from years of draught but too much of it, can make us blue.
Growth is not a straight and narrow path, it is often broad and windy, where we battle demons and once we slay them, we feel one step closer to Heaven.
One only has to look around to see what is being done to our world and our human family to understand, that we don't matter to any of these people in charge, they pin us against one another and do...
Hope is like a shadow, it follows us around and depending on what time of the day it is; it can be out of sight, however, it is still there.
Today, I am letting go of my role as a student mentor at RMIT University. It was only a voluntary role, but it was a role that helped me grow so much, both as a mentor and as a human being. It all...
"There is peace even in the storm" ― Vincent van Gogh It has been one amazing ride, and the amount of pain and suffering I have released it's been unimaginable, I never thought facing myself and my demons would be such a hard thing, especially going into the deep-dark corners in my soul where all the anger was stored over time.
"A hero ventures forth from the worldof common day into a region ofsupernatural wonder. Fabulous forcesare there encountered and a decisivevictory is won." ― Joseph Campbell Have you noticed that after covid there is a mass resignation taking place, and some of it is because people have realised there is more to life than just work, spending time away from family and staying in a career for the sake of the dollar.
I had one Great Revelation - I didn't know I was angry until a little toddler pointed it out - Whisdom usually comes from the most unlikely sources... Sunday morning, my wife and I went shopping at our local, she went into a clothing store while I waited for coffee.
Facing my fears, facing myself, and facing an uncertain future have certainly stirred so many dark emotions, ones that were hidden deep in dark corners of my soul and as they have come out to the light, they burn, they cinder, they dissipate with the soft winds of a better tomorrow.
If you are stuck in life, it is not because some outside force is conspiring against you, it is because you lost perspective, you lost your vision, you forgot your why.
One of the most confronting things I have done is to ask myself: Who am I? Where am I going? And Why? Especially who I am as a question is wrecking my mind and soul, there are so many images of the...
November 2019 - It was a fateful day for me. I was pushed into doing a Spartan race by my wife and our fitness coach, and it changed my life for the better. It was roughly 10 years after my first...
I have been blessed and honoured to be able to help students and junior designers (even seniors) to get back on track with their careers, and often with amazing results. I have been at it for RMIT since 2016 but due to the pandemic things got disrupted and zoom was the only option to keep in touch.
Old legends and folklore say happiness can be found at the end of the rainbow together with a pot of gold. Unfortunately in today's society, happiness is wrongfully measured and is directly proportional to material gain, financial wealth, status, sex, power and influence; and it is often seen as something external, something outside of us or something that will come down from the clouds or to become a golden age.
