I think it’s the Catholic upbringing that makes me a little squicky about announcing accomplishments; there’s a thin line between career savvy pimping and just being plain arrogant. Then again, it’s not every month that I have such news to share. So: you are forewarned — shameless self-promotion of kick-ass design skillz to follow.

NAHS [where I work] was announced as a winner thrice-over in the Twenty-Fifth Annual Educational Advertising Awards of 2010, sponsored by the Higher Education Marketing Report [yay for me]. NAHS, an award-winner for the past two years [also my doing], won a Gold, Silver and Merit award for advertisements [my design], admissions posters [ditto], and our weekly email blast [yep, that too], respectively.

This year, over two thousand entries were received from more than one-thousand colleges, universities and secondary schools from all fifty states and several foreign countries.
