      I volunteered to become our AIGA Student Group President in a moment of spontaneity but this decision opened a world of design that I really couldn’t have tapped into otherwise. I embraced AIGA’s inspiration more that year which led to my best work for my senior year of college.

      I thought the burnout virus was something like a fatal illness–once you have it, you’re done for. Luckily, the sickness turns out to be more like a chronic disease–it’s going to happen every so often, and you have to beat it off with a stick. AIGA is that stick. Truth is, I simply would not still be a designer today if it weren’t for AIGA.

      Because of my AIGA student group I have found new friends, and they have become not just acquaintances that I talk to during meetings or class, but people that I know I can go to with design questions or really anything.

      As a student I get the opportunity to interact with professionals, learn about the industry, and get encouragement to keep developing my design skills. All of these I can see continuing to happen well into my career as an AIGA member.

      From cocktails to conferences, I have benefited greatly from social networking. From an educational stand point, AIGA is always teaching me new things from design methodologies to more socially responsible design decisions.
