NEWH - Spring 2021 - 66
Q&A
MEET
Jennifer
Farris
What have you found to be most valuable about your NEWH involvement, both personally
and professionally?
When I started to get involved at the chapter board level the truly invaluable relationships began to
develop. When you are sharing a common mission and investing your personal time into making a
difference in the community, you bond with people in a completely different way.
Why do you recommend people get involved with NEWH?
As creative people we need to find ways to bring meaning to our lives. When your life becomes full of day
after day deadlines and deliverables, it is important to have things like volunteering to raise money for
scholarships that will create that meaning in a different way.
What is your proudest recent NEWH accomplishment?
President of the Washington
DC chapter and owner,
Bandura Design
Having the responsibility to be the DC chapter president during one of the most difficult years we have
ever had as an industry, and as a country, has been very impactful. I am proud to have been able to work
with the board throughout 2020 to try to help find meaningful ways to continue charging forward with the
NEWH mission despite the challenges we have all faced.
What are you most looking forward to?
The day when we can all be in a room together again and I can finally give everyone great big, huge hugs.
What would people be interested to know about your company?
I started Bandura Design with the belief that you can create a life for creative professionals to thrive while
also providing a healthy balance in life. It is very challenging to navigate this demanding profession while
still making family, health, and fun a priority but that is what we strive to do every day at our company.
Where do you find inspiration?
I love to travel, and our industry is pretty great at providing exciting opportunities to travel to inspiring
places for work. In that way I am very lucky. I find inspiration in my day-to-day life by making time for
things that bring me joy. When I feel joyful, my eyes are open to seeing the possibilities in the world
around me in a completely different way.
When you aren't working or at an NEWH event, where can we find you?
I will be at the roller-skating rink at Anacostia Park! Look for the gold skates with light up wheels. \[]
