Hayden Hunt
“I have always loved art, and I chose to major in interior design because I like the technology involved. When most people think of interior design, HGTV is what comes to mind, but it’s so much more technical than what people think. We have access to cutting-edge programs, and it’s amazing how realistic the projects look in the end. We even use virtual reality to do a video walk-through of the space after the model is complete. After I graduate, I hope to focus on hospitality design.

If you could go back and tell your high school self one thing, what would it be.
Remember to take breaks, eat well, get sleep, and have fun. Don't stress!

Why did you choose CAADatMSU?
Since touring campus and the CAAD departments, I knew MSU was for me. The Interior Design Program works in a studio-based setting that prepares you for real-world experience. The classroom sizes are smaller, so your professors actually know you and your strengths/ weaknesses.
Favorite spot on campus?
The lake behind the Sanderson Center.
If you could go back and tell your high school self one thing, what would it be?
It’s okay to ask and admit you need help. Don’t be afraid to reach out.
