ALLISON CHMIELEWSKI

Art and athletics have always been a part of Allison’s life. These two passions are what led her to Michigan State University to pursue her BFA in Graphic Design as a student athlete. Allison has experience working in sportswear design environments, and had the opportunity to intern at Nike in Beaverton, OR, in the Content Studio. Her passion for storytelling is evident in her work, and she approaches design with a dedication to serving others. The part Allison loves most about design is its ability to communicate concepts and ideas that bring people together by celebrating the human experience.
All throughout middle and high school I loved being artistic. I’d help design t-shirts for my school’s track program, along with other teams and school organizations. I knew pretty early on that I loved storytelling and helping find creative solutions.
My biggest creative influence is my grandmother. She is a painter, and growing up I always admired how she celebrated beauty in the natural world through painting.
I think AI is a trending topic of conversation in the design community right now. While there are a lot of unknowns that accompany AI, I feel like now more than ever as graphic design students we have a unique challenge to become versatile and really expand on our individual strengths, in addition to being open to learning. It’s definitely an exciting time with a lot of opportunity for growth in the field!
