set in ink

This week was a huge week for me, because I started it off with signing a contract. After showing my book around I quickly got picked up by Grip Limited. Which is exciting for me, this is an agency that was on my dream list of places to intern. I'm pretty nervous to make the transition from the school atmosphere, to the real world agency. I'm ready to power up my mind and show off my creativity. 

I am incredibly proud of myself, the work that I've done over the last 3 years have lead to this moment. I have faith in myself as an art director and I can't wait to learn so much from Grip. This is going to be an experience that changes me forever.  Taking the Go Train 5 or more times a week seems daunting, but words can't even describe how excited I am to start here. I do dream of living in Toronto one day, but I'm more than happy to take the Go Train while I'm and intern. It's cheaper this way.

It is a scary experience, it's like the first day of school, only 100 times more intimidating. People know what they're doing, and I fear of getting in the way of someone. I'll just be as friendly and hard-working as I can be.  Get ready Grip, I may have a bit to learn, but I'm ready to show you what I'm made out of. Let's do some great things together :D
