  • Year that you graduated EDS: 2007

  • Where are you in school or work now?  I am a first year graduate student at the VCU Brandcenter in Richmond, VA pursuing a Masters of Science in Business concentrated in Branding/Art Direction

  • What do you miss about EDS?  I loved the teachers and creative projects I had while I was at EDS. I loved taking art with Mrs. P, and I truly think the love I have for art (that has directly led to my chosen career path) stemmed from art class and club at EDS.

  • Share some of your successes / accomplishments since EDS? The year between graduating from UNC and coming to VCU I worked in Atlanta doing social media for The Coca-Cola Company.

  • Share organizations or clubs in which you have membership or support? N/A

  • Share any advice that you have for current students or families at EDS. I am really glad that I went to the EDS summer camps and joined a lot of clubs while I was at EDS. EDS offered a lot of things that led to bigger interests and hobbies down the line, and it was great to have exposure at such a young age. Also, my mom would love it if you turn in your library books on time.
