Becky Freeman

For every design course at Humber there is a class called Town Hall. It's where all the students in that program, despite what year/semester they are in come together for a class. This semester we have a different speaker for each week.

Today we had Becky Freeman.

She even graduated from Humber! Becky graduated 6 years ago from Humber with her diploma in Interior Decorating. She was hired 3 weeks after graduation by Brian Gluckstien's Design Corp.  (HUGE) She worked there for a year and then after that year started her own business:

Becky Freeman Interior Design  

Total inspiration. For one she's from Humber :) and when she was here she didn't like to sketch - just like me! So there's hope for me! :) She started her own business, which I hope I can do one day as well.

Anyways, really good, inspiring presentation from her, defiantly made me excited for life after college!

And my teacher for this course (and also my Residential Finishes) is Jo Alcorn.  Not only is she my professor - She also.....  

- own's and design's her own furniture line, all eco friendly

- been on tv ( HGTV's "Design to Win", "Designer Superstar Challenge" and "Canada's Worst Handyman 3)
