Alumni Keynote:
Alex Thompson
Alex shares her journey of moving from intern to full time designer. She’ll share her personal struggle with comparison; both the ways she compared herself to other interns and the way she was compared to her peers at Sheridan. She’d like to send a message to all students (and recent grads) that “trajectory is more important than the position”.

Workshop:
