Taylor Cox's career journey is a testament to the joy of staying true to oneself and the rewards it reaps. He shares how his love for video games (especially KIRBY) in the work he collaborated with us on Adult Swim: Suck-It Smash.
Taylor also sheds light on how he bridges the skill gap, making his interactions with clients enjoyable and keeping his creative spark alive.
