This week we're featuring Joy! She handles all things Under Review (still reeling from such a successful event this year!) She's been involved with AIGA for almost 3 years now helping plan portfolio review experiences and providing support for our various events we host throughout the year.

Get to know Joy ⬇️
💼 Where she works: Art Director @saatchix
📍 Where she's from: Northwest Arkansas
🎶 Fave hobby(s): Making niche Spotify playlists, pop punk shows, jazz nights, doodling, napping!

🔍 Fun Fact/Hidden Talent/Unusual Skill: I am trilingual - English, Spanish, and Laos. And currently trying to learn the craft of tattooing
❓ Why she joined: NWA is full of talented and creative people. What if there were ways to bring them all together? How can we help curate a safe place for creatives to share, learn, and explore?
AIGA NWA allows access to a network of talented individuals and promotes connectivity, job opportunities, and a hub for local creatives in the art + design world.
I wanted to contribute to this endeavor of bringing like-minded people together and encourage artists supporting artists. I don’t believe in gatekeeping industry knowledge and am passionate about supporting the next generation of designers as best as I can.
