On Thursday, April 9 Cindy Li came to Chattanooga to present “Design Your Future: Networking without the ‘Ick’ & Creating Opportunity,” a series of workshops on the importance of a multi-platform approach to design and promotion. She also came to speak to my Professional Practices class and THEN even spent the energy to look over the senior portfolios and share her wisdom. Wow! She is so energetic and has an overall very happy and warm spirit….sounds hippie, I know, but it’s true! She gives off a friendly and inviting conversation that is very approachable. UTC students LOVE her. Before her visit to UTC, I did some research and found out that we have some things in common….We both had a pet turtle. Actually I had many pet turtles. My dad would rescue them from a dog’s mouth, patch up their shell and then we would nurse them to health and set them free. We kept the babies as pets until they got big….ok ok ok, back to Cindy Li’s coolness. She has creates awesome word combinations that are stellar. I will have to get back to you on my favorites. She is insightful, happy and so very talented! Thank You Cindy Li for sharing your wisdom with us!
