The vote was unanimous in her favor and we got lucky again this year to find an artist to volunteer their time to our community cause.
Some of us had the pleasure of meeting Evynne at WordCamp Omaha 2016. She attended just to learn more about web design and WordPress for school. Who would have thought that two years later she would leave her mark on the history of WordCamp Omaha forever? With little direction and only a handful of concepts, she was able to deliver a fun and inviting brand around our event that we have gotten many compliments on.

After many sleepless nights, minimal free time, and a bit of stress/anxiety, she managed to wrap up her college career with a 3.9 GPA.
