I was elected as first acting president for the AIGA CCSG that had a very successful first year. Our presence as a young group from a young design program left a stunning impact on our parent chapter, AIGA San Diego (sandiego.aiga.org).

Our biggest accomplishment of the year was hosting the 2009 UNITE Design Conference. The event had over two hundred attendees who witnessed Brian Singer's 1000 Journals Project.
