Description
Join ASID PA East, IIDA PA/NJ/DE, and NEWH AC/Philly for our newest event in conjunction with Student Career Day, Master Class in Public Speaking with Floss Barber. This event offers interior design students a unique opportunity to develop their presentation and communication skills.
The evening will feature Floss Barber, founder of Floss Barber Inc., who will share her journey from Drexel University to owning her own firm. She will provide insights into the daily responsibilities of an interior designer, ways to build confidence, and strategies for presenting both yourself and your work effectively.
Following Floss's talk, a panel discussion with Floss, Michael Manfroni, and Emily Oleaga-Talley will delve into the realities of working in design, focusing on teamwork, industry expectations, and the key skills needed for success. The panel will also share tips for improving public speaking and client presentations.
The second half of the event will feature presentations by Floss, Michael, and Emily, each sharing a different design project and discussing best practices for presenting ideas to clients. Students who have submitted their presentations in advance will have the chance to present and receive live feedback from the panelists if they are interested.
The evening will wrap up with a Q&A session and networking opportunity for attendees to engage with professionals and peers. This event is an excellent chance for students to refine their communication skills and gain valuable industry insights.
This event is FREE for both Undergraduate and Graduate level students in the surrounding area. No on-site registration allowed.
