Bio

Eileen finds moments of inspiration most often when she is surrounded by bright colors, talented friends, and a lot of good coffee. She inspires new projects by participating in as many opportunities as possible. While in school for Design and Visual Communication, Eileen has worked as a barista at Colectivo Coffee Company and is currently working as a graphic design intern at Propeller design agency. When Eileen isn’t in class or at work, she spends her free time creating patterns for surface design, designing energetic typographic works, and looking for new projects. She has also challenged herself in other artistic outlets, including screen printing, textile design, and portrait illustration. Exploring and enjoying other artistic practices has greatly impacted her skills in typography and graphic design.

Description

Tivity is a nonprofit organization that plans and prepares annual and semi annual Creativents, creative events with a variety of workshops for children and their parents. Some workshops focus on outside-of-the-box idea creation and application of creative problem-solving. Other workshops include more tactile and art skills, like printmaking, textile design, woodworking, and design classes. After each event, Tivity will end with a presentation on how creative thinking and creative skills can be applied to future leadership.

Mission

We give children and their parents/guardians opportunities to build creative skills.

Vision

We forsee the world being fueled by strength in leadership and creative thinking.
