Violet Lent knew that she wanted a career as a graphic designer; she also knew that she couldn鈥檛 see herself sitting in a cubicle creating logos or modifying images. Finding a non-traditional internship placement for a graphic design student proved difficult鈥 until she expanded her network and heard about a graphics position at the Buffalo Museum of Science.

鈥淥ne of my professors mentioned that the museum employs an in-house designer. I met the director, showed him my portfolio and resume, and was offered an internship supporting the exhibit鈥檚 graphic designer,鈥 said Lent.

Lent said, 鈥淚t was great watching the kids create and build. It gave me an entirely new perspective on design.鈥 

The experience at the museum provided Lent the opportunity to work in an environment that catered to her personal and professional goals. 

Lent said, 鈥淚鈥檇 like to see myself in a place similar to the museum. A place that provides an environment where things are always new and exciting.  I certainly would love to have a career at the museum, though.鈥

Lent begins her final year at 爱酱视频 this fall.
