There are a number of unique challenges and opportunities that creatives face when practicing design in the corporate environment. We invite you to join us for an insightful discussion on the successes and common struggles faced in the unique in-house environment and what it takes to succeed there. Panelists include Ashleigh Axios, creative director and digital strategist at the White House, Erin Ellison, graphic design manager at Steelcase, and Steve Frykholm, vice president of creative design at Herman Miller. Leah Nixon, communications director at Grand Rapids Community College, will moderate.

This conversation is meant to be an engaging and informative yet casual discussion helping to provide support, resources, and inspiration for the many in-house designers working here in the creative community. Come join the conversation and share your insights, questions, concerns and advice!
