Summary
In Summer 2024, I had another amazing opportunity to co-op at the Society for Experiential Graphic Designers (SEGD). SEGD is a global, multidisciplinary nonprofit organization dedicated to being a beacon in 7 geographic regions and over 30 chapters for emerging designers. SEGD is headquartered in Washington D.C. The team gave me the opportunity to be remote in Ohio and visit the team in-person during my experience. In my role, I was engaged in various aspects of SEGD's monthly events, including designing forms, schedules, and presentations. I also assisted with website design and supported their annual Global Design Awards.

Key Takeaways
Flexibility in the workplace comes from trust and communication. Being able to clearly and concisely communicate my needs makes it easier on everyone not just me.
Adaptability in the workplace is crucial to success even if you don't want to do it. People are willing to teach you new experiences and that will give you a knowledge boost, never turn down experiences that will teach you new things.
Collaboration is a crucial building block for my professional development. They aren't going to bite, take some chances, learn new experiences, connect with some new amazing people.
Co-op Highlights
Huge thank you to my mentors Angelee H. & Lindsey M. Additional thanks to Will J. and the Pursuit Marketing team for making my final co-op an amazing experience.
