Gabriela Jacobsen NAU
My name is Gabriela Jacobsen and I have fourteen years of work experience in Interior Design industry. My specialty is designing and manufacturing custom window treatments and upholstery. All this time I had the desire to become a well trained and educated professional interior designer. Due to the declining economic situation in the past year, which freed a lot of my time, I realized that this could be a great opportunity to further my education.
In the spring of 2008, I enrolled in the AA degree program offered at Mesa Community College from which I graduated in December of 2009. Currently, I am a senior in the urdergraduate program at Northen Arizona University. During three years that I spent in school, I applied twice for the ASID scholarship that were made available by the organization to support talented and dedicate scholars. I was honored to be recognized by ASID as a top student two year in a row: 2009 second place and 2010 first place. For me, winning those two scholarships changed everything! It proved that through hard work and dedication I was able to reach to the high standardas ASID stands for. Winning those two scholarships supported and motivated me even more. After graduation, I intend to obtain my NCIDQ and LEED certification..
I believe that Interior Design is the best job in the world! I am very passionate about what I do, and don’t want to be just good at it; I want to be great! I do not like becoming stagnant, I love challenges! I believe that learning from past experiences is a great way to better ourselves; there is always a time for growth and improvement.Sincerely,
Gabriela Jacobsen

Congratulations Alex Terry,
Northen Arizona University
My becoming an interior design student was really something of a fluke. I had been studying writting and won a two-year academic scholarship to the Arizona university of my choosing. The original plan had been to attend NAU via a satellite campus and study education. It turned out that this was a rather hasty, ill-conceived plan that wouldn't suit me at all, so I pushed the scholarship for a year and tried to figure out what I wanted to do. I started taking courses for computer graphics and web design and found that I really enjoyed design, so when it came time to decide what I would be using that scholarship for design was my answer. I had already tested the waters of graphic and web design and wanted to branch out further in the design field, so I decided to pursue interior design. This is a decision I have not come to regret at all in the years since. NAU's design program has been a terrific environment in which to learn the trade. I have found the professors to be extremely giving of their knowledge and time and have enjoyed seeing the range of diiffering approaches taken by the other students in the program. ASID too has provided a wonderful experience with a wealth of opportunities to get to know professional designers and my fellow members better.
Now that graduation looms near and I am about to be cast out into the wide world I cannot say where the winding road of life will take me, but I am glad that this has been a stop along my way. I have learned, I have grown, I am ready come what may, and I thank those that I have had the pleasuere of knowing over these years.
Let's all congratulate Alex Terry for her outstanding devotion to ASID! Thank you Alex!
