Hey from San Francisco

My first month has been really busy, with conference planning in full swing from the day that I started. It was great getting thrown into the mix-- I got a crash course in event production-- from online outreach, building buzz via social media, etc etc.

Now that the conference is over, I have time to start developing the projects that I have been thinking about. I am hoping to revamp the website, and at the moment I'm working on a proposal for our staff retreat. Attached is a web design draft I've been playing with in Photoshop. If all goes well, this is what I'm hoping the front page will look like soon (minus some repeat icons and text of course)

Anyway, the office is pretty empty now that the conference is over. NAMAC hires extra staff (4 people) for conference planning, and all are done except for the Producer, who will be staying on until the end of Sept. Afterwards, its just me and 3 others.. so that will definitely be a change of pace.

I'm lovin San Francisco (the food! the weather!) and my co-workers are extremely chill and let me take charge of my own work, which has been great. Overall I'm looking forward to diving in with my own projects :)

That was a great conference. And you're right- San Fransisco food is amazing.
