Will Givens

AUBURN UNIVERSITY

Will Givens is a senior at Auburn University, graduating in December of 2018 with a BFA in Graphic Design. Will is a perpetual learner and recovering perfectionist. Despite brief stints as an amateur cowboy and kitchen manager, he can most often be found reading, researching, or monopolizing professors’ office hours. The function of design as communication and the process of problem resolution are what excites him most about the profession; however, exploring new paths to the final solution is what keeps him interested. Will is at his best when surrounded by others and eagerly anticipates joining a team in which he can continue to grow while exercising all that he is learned thus far.
