As the final component of my Design Degree I was to source and complete a Professional Experience Program (PEP) at a Design Practice of my choosing. A mandatory 500 hours were to be negotiated with a Design professional as my Mentor.

I have always had a passion for publication design and from as early as I can remember ELLE has always been my favourite magazine, so to say I stalked and badgered my way into their art department is something I will neither deny nor regret!

I not only completed my compulsory PEP hours at ELLE, I also stay on as the Production Coordinator in the Art Department until my full time Teaching Internship commenced.
