A little about me...
Hey! My name is Devanie Andre.
​
I am based out of the Twin Cities area in Minnesota. I am pursuing a bachelor's degree in graphic design with a concentration in marketing and a minor in photojournalism at Bethel University.
​
I am Sicangu Lakota descent so I have lived several years on the Rosebud reservation and other areas of South Dakota. My cultural identity is important to me and inspires my desire to serve a variety of voices through design.
​
I’ve grown up in sports and being a part of something greater than myself. I’ve learned to communicate and collaborate with others effectively. I try to understand other perspectives and create designs others can connect with. I believe an important part of design is forming relationships, bringing joy to others, and being a part of something greater than oneself.​​
