A Change On The Horizon

Posted on Monday, June 14th, 2010

Last month I was contacted by three different companies who were interested in my work. I wasn’t searching for a new job, so it was a bit out of the blue for me. I figured it was worth checking into. I talked with all three companies, but really felt that one of them was a great fit. So starting on June 22nd, I will start working for Waggener Edstrom in Lake Oswego, OR as an Experience Designer.

They are a really great company and handle some pretty huge projects. I am excited to go to work there and work along side some amazingly talented people.

For the first 60 days I am going to be working 3 days per week so I can wrap up with some of the big projects I am working on now. After that, the plan is to go on full-time.

I am still going to take on freelance projects, but not at the volume I do now.

I’m thankful for this opportunity, and I look forward to joining the Waggener Edstrom team.

      Thanks Brandie! I will be working from the office in Lake Oswego. So it’s about a 30–40 minute commute. Time to renew my Audible.com subscription :)
