Get to know ATD’s founding class!
“I started ATD because I wanted to create a community where designers and creatives from diverse backgrounds could build wide-ranging professional skills and make an impact on the world around them. During my first three years, I was constantly inspired by student orgs I joined across technology, music, and marketing, but noticed that a dedicated space for design was missing. In essence, founding ATD in my final year of school was my way of solving for an unmet need at the University of Michigan!”
