I’m so happy to share that I had the honor of winning four Advertising and Business individual awards and two Best of Show Awards at the 2024 Associated Collegiate Press Spring National College Media Conference in March. Both my personal portfolio and design work that I’ve created for my campus job at Central Michigan Life were entered into this competition. I got the opportunity to travel to La Jolla, California to attend the conference and awards ceremony alongside some of my CM Life colleagues, where I also gave a presentation on designing with artificial intelligence.
Thank you Central Michigan Life for this opportunity and Kathy Routley Simon for being a great mentor. I’m honored to have been part of our amazing student media team, to have been a speaker at this year’s conference, and to have received multiple national awards for my design work🔥⬆️
