Please share how your experience led to personal inspiration or insightful revelation.
I really liked the environment of the workplace. I had fun co-workers, and an extremely understanding, funny, collaborative, and caring supervisor in Greg Danklef. I loved how nice and welcoming everyone was. I love working in a space that allowed me to be fully creative and try new things. It was fun to learn about new platforms for design, and learn more skills on LinkedIn learning. I was able to explore new techniques and given projects that pushed me in my process and my creative thinking. I had a ton of support in the office, and was well valued among my peers. I really enjoyed this internship this summer!
Would you recommend this internship to other students?
I would recommend this internship. Whether students would work at TD or not, a graphic design internship teaches you so much. I learned how to collaborate with so many different types of people, and that was huge! I really liked the creative outlet.
If you get bored easily and can't fill up your time creatively I wouldn't recommend. But I was able to always stay creative and explore new things while projects weren't coming in so consistantly.
