Recently, my students at Baylor University were adjudicated the American Graphic Design Award by GDUSA. As an Educator, it is such an honor to be featured in this renowned design publication, especially after just beginning my tenure-track position at Baylor University and my students’ work getting recognized. Thank You GDUSA!
