Karen Yee is a senior Graphic Design major and Fine Arts minor. Originally from Connecticut, Karen is a mathematical person in an art-influenced field. She loves to think logically and creatively to solve complex design puzzles. Bright colors and photography are a huge theme in Karen’s work, and she needs music while designing. During her six month co-op at SEDSO Design in Philadelphia, she worked on brand systems and learned to effectively extend one concept across several mediums. On campus, Karen is a designer for the student run design firm Graphics Group and a member of the Ski/Snowboard Club. When she is not designing you will definitely find her outside or doing something active like rock climbing or biking through the city.

YOUR DESIGN HERO?
Honestly I’m most influenced by everyday things and interactions. A little bit of observation and you can find inspiration from almost anything.

TALENT YOU WISH YOU POSSESSED?
I really wish I could apparate/teleport.

IF YOU WERE NOT A DESIGNER, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
I would be living outside somewhere, rock climbing everyday.

A MANTRA OR SAYING YOU LIVE BY?
It’s all about the balance and positive energy.
