Happy Birthday Jeremy

Today is Jeremy's 30th birthday! I couldn't let such a big year go by without making a public announcement. I just want him to know how much I love him. He does so much for our little family.
We found out yesterday that Jeremy got accepted to work as an intern for Richter 7. One of Jeremy's teachers told him that Richter 7 is the 2nd best advertising agency in Utah. Which means it will look fabulous on his resume when he's trying to find a graphic design job. Since Jeremy's dream job is to work at an ad agency, this is a perfect opportunity for him. I am so excited for him and have included some of the portfolio pieces that got him the internship. There was more than one person applying for the internship, and with Jeremy's crazy schedule, they really had to like what he did to "hire" him. I say "hire" because it is an unpaid internship. On top of his 30 -35 hours a week he'll still have to work at his paid job, he'll be working an additional 10 - 15 hours a week at this unpaid internship. Keep in mind that he also has 3 classes at UVU. So this semester will be a VERY busy one. But luckily it is his last and will graduate in December! Let's just hope he does a good enough job at this internship that Richter 7 will want to hire him when he graduates. (Providing there is an opening at that time.)

So here are his portfolio pieces. They are much better quality than what I have them here, but since I wasn't really sure the best way to convert them for the blog, they lost quality when I turned them into jpegs. But at least you get to see them! (You can click on the pictures to make them larger. That way you can read some of the words that are too small on the blog.)P.S. Richter 7's website is: richter7.com if you want to check out the company.

We were excited to hear about your opportunity for an internship at Richter 7! Thanks Sarah for including some of his portfolio. Jeremy has always been creative! Sounds like he will be super busy just with school and work--and then there's his busy church calling. Good luck--we know you can do it. Good for you Jeremy!
