Not only are students taught how to create three-dimensional, [branded environments](http://www.hillpartners.com/branded-environments/), but also learn the importance of networking. Throughout my education, I was given several opportunities and platforms to showcase my work to professionals in the exhibit design industry, including [EXHIBITOR*LIVE*](http://www.exhibitoronline.com/live/2016/index.asp). In return, my senior year at Bemidji State, I was fortunate to receive several job offers and opportunities that spanned across the country. I looked for a small company with a great [culture](http://www.hillpartners.com/about-company), passionate employees, an experienced creative team, and preferably outside of the Midwest. I found all that I was looking for on the east coast, at [Hill & Partners](http://hillpartners.com). ![Trevor performing at Bemidji's TAD Talk event](https://info.hillpartners.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Trevor_Bemidji-1.jpg?width=700&name=Trevor_Bemidji-1.jpg "Trevor performing at Bemidji's TAD Talk event") As an exhibit designer at Hill & Partners, I look to continue my education in exhibit design from a knowledgeable creative team, as well as the many related processes from an experienced, [award-winning ](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/hill-partners-awarded-in-the-trade-show-booth-displays-category-for-marcom-galaxy)organization. I aspire to become a creative director or freelancer for retail and event design in the future. ![Trevor Beniak - Hill & Partners Exhibit Designer](https://info.hillpartners.com/hs-fs/hubfs/TB_ExhibitDesigner.jpeg?width=700&name=TB_ExhibitDesigner.jpeg "Trevor Beniak - Hill & Partners Exhibit Designer") As of now, I’m right where I want to be, surrounded by an abundance of knowledge and experience that will facilitate my growth as a designer. --- ![OurPeople_Trevor Beniak](https://info.hillpartners.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OurPeople_Trevor-01.png?width=541&name=OurPeople_Trevor-01.png "OurPeople_Trevor Beniak") --- **Read More: [Sr. Exhibit Designer, John Grogan's experience at Bemidji's TAD Talks](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/hp-senior-exhibit-designer-shares-expertise-at-bemidji-state-tad-talk)** **EXHIBITOR ONLINE: [Hill & Partners Adds Trevor Beniak to Exhibit Design Team](http://www.exhibitoronline.com/news/article.asp?ID=15236)** --- [![Download the Experience White Paper Today](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/213399/50ea66f5-a679-4d07-9bcb-f54782913e51.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/213399/50ea66f5-a679-4d07-9bcb-f54782913e51) Topics: [Authentically Us](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/authentically-us), [Our People](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/our-people) ### Topics - [Project Highlights (92)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/project-highlights) - [Our People (61)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/our-people) - [From the Experts (48)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/from-the-experts) - [Featured (39)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/featured) - [Authentically Us (38)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/authentically-us) - [Tips & Tricks (34)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/tips-tricks) - [on the ground (33)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/on-the-ground) - [Brand Experience (27)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/brand-experience) - [Industry News & Trends (22)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/industry-news-trends) - [Community Highlights (15)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/community-highlights) - [International Work (13)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/international-work) - [Meet Our People (12)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/meet-our-people) - [Trade Show Tips (12)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-tips) - [AroundTheInternet (5)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/aroundtheinternet) - [Five in Five (5)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/five-in-five) - [Hill & Partners Announcements (3)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/hill-partners-announcements) - [Trade Shows (3)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-shows) - [Branded Environments (2)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/branded-environments) - [Custom Branded Environments (2)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/custom-branded-environments) - [Exhibit Designs (2)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/exhibit-designs) - [If You Asked Us (2)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/if-you-asked-us) - [Project Highlight (2)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/project-highlight) - [Trade Show Graphics (2)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-graphics) - [Amazing People (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/amazing-people) - [Awards (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/awards) - [Exhibitions (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/exhibitions) - [Experiential Marketing (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/experiential-marketing) - [Latest (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/latest) - [New Exhibit Designs (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/new-exhibit-designs) - [Rental Branded Environments (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/rental-branded-environments) - [The President's Viewpoint (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/the-presidents-viewpoint) - [TheUnconventionalGuide (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/theunconventionalguide) - [Trade Show Booths (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-booths) - [Trade Show Games (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-games) - [Trade Show Giveaways (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-giveaways) - [Trade Show ROI (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-roi) - [Trade Show Statistics (1)](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/topic/trade-show-statistics) [see all](https://info.hillpartners.com/blog/bemidji-exhibit-design-graduate-joins-hill-partners#) ### Recent Posts ### Subscribe to Email Updates [Change your experience!
