Andrea had the honor of joining Ionis Pharmaceuticals at their Why Week All Employee Meeting in Carlsbad, CA to create a live illustration of a deeply moving and unforgettable panel. The session, titled "In Their Words: Hearing from Individuals Representing the Communities We Serve," featured courageous voices from the patient community and caregivers impacted by rare and complex diseases.
As the founder of Inkforma, a San Diego-based graphic recording and visual storytelling studio, I specialize in capturing conversations through live illustration—also known as graphic recording, sketchnoting, or visual note-taking. This event was a powerful reminder of why this work matters.
