Michelle Yao – A Design for Startups alum, Yao founded ECU Design Careers to bridge the gap between art & design education and the creative industry by connecting students to industry alumni. Established in 2020, the organization is run independently by ECUAD alumni. Together, they provide design students in a primarily Fine Art based school with various mentorship activities to build their early career development and networking.
