Inspiration




Last semester I attended a graphic design conference with AIGA called SEEK. I had gone to this conference last year at NIU, and met a lot of influential creatives from all over the US. I learned about what kind of skills I needed to acquire over my last year here at Bradley. I was so excited to attend this year to see what I would learn and who I would meet.

One of the most impactful presentations at SEEK last semester was from Justin Ahrens, the Principal and Creative Director at Rule29. It gave me a whole new perspective on design and where I eventually want to take my career. He shared stories of his travels to Africa, and how design can make a difference all over the world. I eventually want to be stable enough as a designer where I can work with non-profits to create impactful designs that can change the lives of others.

Above is a video Justin showed during his presentation of an inspiration he knows. This video really hit me, and made me realize the bigger picture. You should do what you love and live life to the fullest. It is a touching story!
