Deirdre Kunze

Majored in Bfa In Theare Technology And Design With An Emphasis In Stage Management
Brenau University, Class of 2015
From Alpharetta, Ga.

Energetic. Adaptable. Eager. As a college senior, I find my self eager and prepared to take on the many challenges that I will soon confront. I am pursuing a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Design and Technology for Theatre with a concentration in stage management. This has allowed me to also pursue another passion of mine-- graphic design-- opening new and exciting opportunities to me. I have been working as a part of the wait staff at Mari's Cucina (previously Dal Cuore) for two years which has opened up opportunity to learn new team leader and management skills. I have also been given the opportunity to learn and work with the team on marketing and design for the small business. I have also had the opportunity to work as a design intern for Brenau, creating digital designs and advertisements for their electronic signs and their student web page. Simultaneously, I have worked to create marketing materials for the Gainesville Theatre Alliance's Repertory Company and to help a local high school design their 2015 football program. Once I graduate at the end of April, I hope to use my experience in working as a graphic designer to find a job in a related field that will allow me to grow and learn more about design and marketing . I look forward to using my team-player mentality, drive, and energy to work with a group of people to create great work.
