Veer’s new summer design intern is ... Auburn University student Daniel Cole!
To claim his two-month, paid internship, Daniel beat out applicants from all over North America, winning our judges over with his personality, curiosity, and a new found enthusiasm for design. He was originally enrolled in anthropology courses, but decided to shift his focus. In his own words:
“Let’s just say that extended contact with designers can seduce someone tired of sorting indistinct bits of pottery in a cramped, dusty room.”
Daniel will be joining the creative team in Calgary to work on a mix of marketing, advertising, event, and merch projects. With a passion for typography, he’s more than prepared.
“I think type has had a lot to do with my interest in design. It’s one of the elements of design that's always available to you, and it shows your ideals.”
For those keeping track, this is Veer’s 5th design internship, and the 3rd filled by an Auburn student.
