I am now on the Achieve website!

Working at Achieve

My experience over the past 2 1/2 weeks at Achieve has been amazing! My office is right downtown above a restaurant so I have an amazing view and am in a great location to experience Indianapolis to the fullest. Currently, I am working on my first project which happens to be the biggest one of the year. I am designing the Millennial Report. This report is an extremely in depth analysis of the millennial generation when it comes to helping nonprofits. So far the report is almost 40 pages with MANY graphs. I am working on some infographs right now which is by far my favorite part yet.

I have some amazing coworkers, with an amazing view, in an amazing, working an amazing job. I can't wait to see what else Achieve has in store for me.

Here is a sample of just one of the infographs I have designed so far for the report.

 This is the view from my window! I am so lucky.

Salvation Army Internship

Today is my last day working as the marketing and design intern at The Salvation Army Indiana Headquarters. It was an amazing experience. The people there are amazing and incredibly friendly. I have never worked at a place quite like it. Everyone there was like family and had such great attitudes. My boss, Brian Smith, is by far the best boss I have ever had. He gave me this wonderful opportunity as well as freedom to work on my own and completely trusted me. Not only was he my boss but he is my friend. Thanks Brian! Without you and The Salvation Army I would not be working for such a wonderful place as Achieve Guidance!

Here are the last things I designed for The Salvation Army. These are just some ideas for creating T-shirts for kids who join the Bite Back Brigade, which is a fight against hunger and homelessness. The new theme for The Bite Back Brigade is "Be a Superhero!"
