Exhibit DesignerBolingbrook, ILJun 2018 - May 2019 (11 months)After the abrupt closing of MG Design, I was looking for a company that could further my career, challenge me and mentor me into a more experienced designer. CEP was able to do just that... Being a smaller company, I was able to learn and experience so many different avenues in such a short time. My time here consisted of both custom and rental exhibit designs, marketing campaigns and graphic re-designs for the CEP brand.
