A sudden realization dawned upon Leopold. Expressing regret, he suggested, “I was not very


    considerate. What if, instead, you joined my team as a guest designer?”


    Guest designers aren’t required tomit full-time and can garner valuable knowledge. This time,


    Loraine didn’t decline and readily agreed, “It would be an honor!”
