Whether you’re on a trip to visit studios in a new location, attending a portfolio review, or other events, it’s helping you by exposing you to new opportunities you didn’t know were there before and introducing you to people that could potentially help you learn skills that land you a job in the future,\u201d Otter said. \u201cThe people I’m referring to could be your own peers that are also in AIGA, or people that you meet through AIGA events.\u201d

Otter stated that while she is very passionate about graphic design, she is also interested in many other things as well.

\u201cI’m also passionate about learning new things, analyzing films, graphic design, and digital photography,\u201d Otter said.

As for Otter, being a Tiger to her means to do your best and to uplift those around you.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
