This post is a long-time coming, but I didn’t want to jinx anything by writing about this before it was officially official. These past couple months I have been on a whirl-wind of a job search, which has been full of opportunity, but full of complete highs and lows at the same time. Mixing that with finishing up school, computers dying, and tying up lose ends with my job in Savannah before I graduate, I’ve been more of a mess than I’d like to admit. As of today I signed my paperwork, and also put a hold on a new apartment in…Cleveland! I’ll be heading back to my roots on Lake Erie, but starting a whole new adventure at American Greetings as a designer on their stationery team. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have this opportunity to do something I truly love day-in and day-out. It’s a true blessing.

I can’t wait to start on my new adventure, and I’m so thankful to all of those that have supported me along this journey. It sure has been full of jumps and bumps,  but there are so many of you—family, friends, boyfriend, professors, readers, and many more—that are getting huge cyber hugs from me right now. I’m a huge fan of positivity and you have all been there cheering me along this whole time, and giving me that much needed constructive feedback when necessary. Thank you.

Along with this new venture in my life, things are definitely going to start changing around here. Starting off, I’m letting myself off the hook with blogging until that thesis is personally handed in to the graduate studies department and I get those signatures from my committee. This just needs to be lower on my priority list for right now. As it’s intention, this space is all about my journey as a creative, so it’s bound to grow and get pruned here and there. I don’t know where things will be going, but I can feel that change is in the air.

Savannah darling, you will be missed.
