It’s a week away from Thanksgiving! I cannot believe how fast this semester has flown by. Between working at Imagewest and graduating in December, I have been one busy gal. While at Imagewest, I have completed the “Save the Date” WKU Human Resources Benefits Manual postcard and booklet. Currently, I am working on a banner for the Philosophy and Religion Department at WKU, and I am partnering up with Hollye Westbrook to complete a project for the Simpson County Literacy Center, in Franklin, Ky. Imagewest has been the perfect opportunity for me to grow as a designer and prepare myself for what’s to come after graduation.

For the past couple of weeks, Heather has been going over the “Job Search” section in our handbooks. Especially to upcoming graduates, it has been extremely helpful. Heather has covered everything from resumes to portfolios and what not to wear. One of the most important things that I have learned is to be comfortable no matter what. Dress nice for interviews but also be comfortable; find a nice portfolio to show your work, but find one that makes you comfortable.
Not only has Imagewest been a growing experience, but I have also met some really awesome people! The projects and deadlines can be stressful at times, but everyone is always there to pat you on your back and give you the positive feedback you need. Although everyone is working on different projects, we still continue to work as a team and complete projects together.
