I just finished my second week of practicum with Pivot & Pilot and, yes, still loving it here! It’s also gotten warm and sunny in Vancouver this week which definitely lightens the mood. I’m grateful to have my cats around the house who love to sit on my desk sometimes while I’m working and keep me company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week started with helping Lindsey with writing and perfecting all the copy for a restaurant website we are working on. Because the team at Pivot & Pilot is quite small, the designers here have the opportunity to wear a lot of different hats and experience various roles. On that day, Lindsey and I were both copywriters. It was a fun process trying to craft the perfect voice for parts of the site – from hero headings to FAQ answers! Rebecca, the creative director, gave us a lot of good tips and advice on “sales” copy and how to subtly sell a brand\/product while still feeling authentic. For the rest of the week, I’ve been working with Joelle on the design of a rehaul for Pivot & Pilot’s site. There was a lot of big design edits to be made so that kept me busy! I’ve come to realize that I really, really enjoy site design for some odd reason. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I treated myself to some delicious lunch at Burgoo on Thursday (which is my ‘Friday’, since I only work 4 days a week)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The week has gone by so quickly and I can’t believe I’ve done 2 weeks of practicum already. I definitely want to schedule a couple more coffee chats next week to meet and get to know more of my coworkers! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
