Artsy Fartsy

Have you ever been to a conference or presentation and one of the slides was so beautiful you were like “wow, how did they ever make that slide.” Well apparently marketing works in conjunction with another department, to be honest I forget its name, but they make beautiful slides together. The design was pretty incredible. They go for a simple aesthetic which seems to be the wave of the future.

Then we toured the customer contact building, shout out to Kevin for incredible navigation. The building is actually on the way to kung fu tea. They deal with both angry and confused customers, helping them find their way.

Lastly we had a pizza party and a career panel where some older members of the young professionals network gave us advice on college, life, and jobs. Just kidding, they were pretty young.

Overall I’d like to thank SAS for teaching me a lot, showing me the power of statistics and data analytics, and for hiring such great people. I enjoyed meeting the vast array of personalities, backgrounds, and people that make up the company of SAS.

Kevin!

Day 7: Visit and Variations

It’s hard to believe that today was my second to last day at LCA! I have been having such an unforgettable and educational experience, having gained so much exposure to a potential area of college study and life-long profession. Shoutout to Ms. Eason for paying me a visit today; it was nice to see a familiar face in the office. I made some great progress on my greenhouse today. I completed the frame of my initial design, which made my next step of testing out glass paneling easier. By having a fundamental frame, I could copy and paste that same frame, only changing the glass for each variation. The traditional greenhouse has sectioned glass that usually follows a rectangular shape. I tested out several options regarding the sizes of the glass panels—big or small rectangles, horizontal, and vertical. There is no correct way to go about designing this greenhouse; it is important to test out the many different designs that can be created so the best one can be chosen. I am excited for my last day tomorrow but also a little nervous! The designers and I are having a group critique with the various projects we have all been working on. In the critique, I will be able to experience a true ‘design-thinking’ environment. Wish me luck!
