AIGA Chicago

Yep, it’s that time of year again. AIGA Chicago is ramping up our sponsorship for 2010.  You aren’t going to believe what we have in store for Twenty-Ten! As the Developmental Co-Chair, I want to introduce two fantastic peeps who are joining me this year:

Francine Carlino has been part of AIGA Chicago since 1998 after moving from Indiana where she started her career as a graphic designer for a state bank and a printing company. After moving to Chicago she worked for one of the major accounting firms as a graphic designer for seven years. In 2005 Francine joined the sales and marketing force at Finch Paper where she continued her support with AIGA Chicago. Francine currently runs her own design studio, focusing on high-end custom invitations, cards, stationery, unique gifts, and décor.

Rosemary Walker and the Creative Circle crew (much love!)
A proud graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Rosemary Walker started her career as an Account Manager with a firm focused on healthcare marketing before making the transition to a relationship management role within recruitment for advertising and marketing. Rosemary has been with national creative staffing agency Creative Circle for four years and currently manages the Chicago office. In this role, she has leveraged her exposure to the creative and strategic process to partner with clients and help identify talent that will strengthen their creative impact. Rosemary has built relationships with hundreds of names across the design, advertising and marketing industry. Her daily exposure to talent requests and candidate portfolios provides her with an active pulse on the status and future of the Chicago design community.
Next week I am going to give you direct access to our 2009 Sponsors, be on the look out..
