My experience as a Design Management Student at the University of North Texas
As a passionate student of art and design, the Interdisciplinary Art and Design Studies program at UNT has been an ideal fit. It has allowed me to explore a range of creative fields, including graphic design, interior design, digital art, and more. Pursuing the Design Management path, along with minors in Marketing and Management, has equipped me with a well-rounded skill set in both creative and business disciplines. On the portfolio page is a collection of some of my favorite projects from courses such as Digital Communication for Art and Creative Entrepreneurship, and Digital Tools and Technologies for Creative Practice.
My experience as a Graphic Design Intern at United Way of Denton County
Although my internship is ongoing throughout Fall 2024, it has already been an invaluable learning experience. As the sole graphic design intern, I collaborate closely with the Director of Marketing and Communications to execute a variety of design tasks, relying heavily on the Adobe Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. This real-world application of Adobe tools has significantly advanced my technical skills in ways that academic projects couldn't. Balancing multiple design projects alongside full-time coursework and part-time work has also strengthened my time management and organizational abilities.
