🎮 From imposter syndrome to @nintendoamerica — @ncstate_gxid student Josue Avalos Jimenez is turning his design dreams into reality.
As a Caldwell Fellow and Graphic & Experience Design major, he’s learning that leadership isn’t always loud — it’s empathetic, intentional and collaborative.

That’s a wrap on our takeover! 🎬✨
Thanks for following along with us this past week as we shared a peek into the magic of Design Camp!
We’re endlessly grateful to everyone who makes this program possible, from our incredible staff, to the College of Design’s Facilities crew, Materials Lab, Student Services, and the amazing alumni who gave their time and stories.
It truly takes a village to run Design Camp, and Abby and I are so lucky to be part of this one. ❤️

It’s the last day of our Design Immersions Residential Camp 😭 but we couldn’t leave without asking: what’s ONE WORD to sum it all up? Spoiler: it’s not ice cream. 🐄🍦
If you’ve been to Design Camp, drop your one word in the comments. 💬

As @ncstatedesignlab continues our takeover of @ncstatedesign this week, we’d like to celebrate the people who make Design Camp what it is…
47 kind, creative, and hardworking team members who show up every single day with heart. There have been countless moments of leadership, collaboration, and thoughtfulness.
Thank you all for making this summer unforgettable. We couldn’t do it without you! 💛
We still have more camp ahead, but this team deserves all the love.
(Did you work with us this summer? Then yes, that is our dearest team member Rumpus at the end.)
