Eight Years

Tomorrow marks my eight year anniversary working at HTK! I can’t believe how fast time flies. I still remember my first days here like they were yesterday. I’ve gained an incredible amount of knowledge about the world of design and marketing, as well as myself and my place in this world. It’s fun to think back eight years and realize just how much growth and change has happened since then. Not only for me, but for my co-workers, friends and this awesome city! We’ve all run the gamut of experiences—relationships sealed and dissolved, babies born and loved ones moving on to another world, moving into new houses and neighborhoods, facing struggles with dignity and compassion, and finding joy and fortitude in new challenges. All of these things widen ourselves to this world and make us stronger and healthier in the long run. As much as change is like pulling a tooth sometimes, it’s also a blessing, so embrace it!

Here’s to more embracing—growth, knowledge, fun times, hard times and everything else in between! Cheers!
