Student Highlights

I was drawn to the Military REACH team because what they work for every day is something bigger than them. They all contribute to the thousands of military families and loved ones affected by the military, and I love that.

I had the opportunity to work on the end of the year poster for the Military REACH team, and it was amazing to see all they have accomplished in just one year.

My role as a designer for the project is focused on delivering products/designs to the team. I design my layouts to appreciate and focus on what they need to see first. I make sure that everything is user friendly, keeping the user interface in mind. I want the product to flow and be easy to use/understand. The process can be challenging, but it is worth it in the end.

From working with Military REACH, I have taken away that you can learn something from everything you do. Whether it’s a small layout design, or an end of the year poster, using everyone’s thoughts and opinions to produce an overall product is the most important. I have gained confidence to be passionate in my design decisions and really let that show with what I deliver to the team.

My dream job would be to produce high-end prosthetics for lower income families. My brother has a prosthetic arm, and I have seen firsthand how impacting a prosthetic can be and how expensive it can cost. I want to be able to give that chance to families that can’t necessarily afford it.
