MILWAUKEE INSTITUTE OF ART & DESIGN (MIAD)
Cera Propper is a Junior working toward her BFA in Communication Design. She has always loved to create, and through graphic design feels that she can successfully communicate her ideas. She draws inspiration from lots of places, especially from Milwaukee, a city she loves living in, and from music, which she constantly listens to. Cera is drawn to many different types of design, with a special love for hand-rendered typography. She is passionate about sustainability, local businesses, and working towards a better future, themes that appear frequently in her design work. Outside of design, she loves being a plant mom, exploring the city’s range of coffee shops, and spending time with her favorite people.
