Jeremy Wilkins: Graphic Designer Extraordinaire


I met Jeremy at Utah State my sophomore year. We both worked the front counter at the Sports Academy in Logan. His sweet wife, Hallie, was a massage therapist there. So, it was basically a party every time I was assigned a shift with those two. I literally looked forward to it. Not only were they hip, but they were both incredibly genuine, down-to-earth, and easy to laugh with. I shared a sense of cynicism with Jeremy about particular co-workers and tennis-playing patrons. We spent many a hour folding white, terry-cloth towels and fake-grinning at people's ridiculous requests and complaints. Since then, we have considered Hallie and Jeremy very good friends. Jason and Jeremy have even found brotherhood in their mutual respect for music and love for the Elixir of Life (i.e. Diet Pepsi). Those are not two things to be taken lightly...
Jeremy went back to school a while back to get his Graphic Design degree from USU. And can I tell you something? He has found his true calling. I know this because I have been working very closely with him on a project for the past seven months. He has been the epitome of hard work and unrelenting dedication. He has not said one negative thing as I have pitched my crazy ideas. Instead, he took them and made them into exactly what I was envisioning. I'm talking perfection, people. Do you know how hard that is?! MY thoughts? It's a scary, scary place. But Jeremy was brave. And he killed it. He is so very talented at what he does.
Check out his stuff: www.jwilkinsdesign.com. You won't be disappointed. Oh, and when you do, keep your eyes peeled for a bit of a sneak peek on my "baby." More on that later...

P.S. Jeremy, is it creepy that I stole this from your blog? If so, I am sorry. But you know I can be creepy sometimes. I'll take it down if you want me to. Just say the words.
P.P.S. Cutest girls ever? I think yes.
