As soon as I finished school, I got a job as a graphics assistant at a wastewater civil engineering firm. By that time, I already knew that I probably didn’t have a flourishing career in graphic design, but the engineering industry was a stable place to be, and graphics meant working in the marketing department! I went from creating icons for membrane bioreactors to graphic icons for process flow diagrams—and I guess I was hooked. This eventually led to crafting proposals, coordinating, and managing. Being a part of creating something, whether a pump station or a hospital building, and the process of developing a concept through to reality is exciting! After spending a few years at an architecture firm, I found my way to Degenkolb.
