Aubrey Hayden

BALL STATE UNIVERSITY

Growing up, Aubrey always had a passion for studio art, but it wasn’t until her senior year of high school that she discovered her love for graphic design. Aubrey is currently a Senior at Ball State University majoring in Visual Communication and minoring in Art History, and she pursues projects that combine her passions for design and art history. She has worked and interned as a designer at various locations over the past four years, but she is excited to complete her first museum internship in a museum at the David Owsley Museum of Art in the spring of 2022.

WHERE WERE YOU BORN AND WHERE DO YOU LIVE NOW?

I was born in Memphis TN but I live and grew up in Avon IN.

IF YOU COULD LIVE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?

As of right now, I would love to live in Chicago.

WHAT IS THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE YOU’RE FACING AS A DESIGN STUDENT RIGHT NOW?

I think the largest challenge I’m facing as a design student right now is keeping up with the pace at which things change in the industry. We work in a field that is constantly evolving, so keeping up with newly released programs, shifting style trends, and increased expectations from employers can be overwhelming but exciting.
