I had the pleasure of interning with Margit and Brian during my last semester at Design Institute of San Diego; the school has high standards, expectations, and rigorous guidelines for a firm to meet when interning their students. To see so much from our classrooms come to life, and be handled so effectively and efficiently by two who have obviously mastered their trade, was more worthwhile than I ever imagined it to be.
