AIGA Minnesota’s Director of Diversity & Inclusion is seeking to create a committee to help the organization become more inclusive. Participating in the committee will help amplify the positive impact of the national AIGA Task Force within our local chapter.

The committee’s focus would be pointed at access to our organization, improving inclusion efforts of existing programs and events, trainings for our board and members on systemic oppression, the gaining and retention of marginalized creatives, mentorships for leadership positions, and educating our industry on what it means to be inclusive.

Interested in Joining?

Drew Graham
Director of Diversity and Inclusion
For Drew, design is an act of radical empathy founded on the belief that every space, whether digital or physical, should be built to welcome everyone. As a UX/UI specialist, his dedication to accessibility isn't just a professional checkbox. It is deeply rooted in a career that actually began in the physical world, sculpting molds for prosthetic and orthotic leg braces.

He has spent over a decade bridging the gap between complex technical constraints and genuine human connection. Whether he is mapping out intuitive user journeys for healthcare startups or serving as a core advocate for players with disabilities within the Activision Disabilities Network, his focus remains entirely on breaking down barriers. As Director of Diversity and Inclusion for AIGA Minnesota, Drew is committed to ensuring the local creative community feels deeply approachable, supportive, and accessible to designers of all ability levels, backgrounds, and demographics.

Catch him anytime to talk about scalable design systems, grassroots community growth, indie game storytelling, or the perfect backyard grill setup.
