A proud graduate of The Academy of the Sacred Heart, an all-girl Catholic school in Grand Coteau, La., I have maintained a deep interest in the advancement of women since high school. Sacred Heart proudly instilled in us five goals which, to this day, I can repeat verbatim: 1) A personal and active faith in God, 2) A deep respect for intellectual values, 3) Community awareness which impels one to action, 4) Commitment to the building of a community with Christian values while respecting other religions, and 5) A commitment to personal growth in an atmosphere of wise freedom.

Blast from the Past: Holly Lutz, What is She Up to Now?
When did you work at BBR and what did you do?
I started out at BBR in the spring of 2008 as an intern and research assistant. I had recently moved to Lafayette from Ohio with my then fiancé Brian and had started the arduous process of job hunting. I remember walking down Jefferson Street past BBR Creative one afternoon and thinking, “this looks like a cool place.” (more…)

Everybody Loves a Good Catfight!
LSU 45 – Auburn 10
Brock Services once again called BBR to design the party collateral for their annual, rip-roarin’ LSU tailgate party. BBR tackled the creative challenge to capture the rivalry between our beloved LSU Tigers vs. “those OTHER Tigers” and — per the client’s request — design “one helluva invitation.” Putting our heads together, we presented some “punchy” design concepts – just what Brock was looking for. With a fun concept and ferocious visuals, our “Catfight” invitation was a win-win! When event branding is involved, BBR is a great sparring partner to have in your corner.
Take Off with Idea Flight
I was recently in a half-day seminar and the PowerPoint the presenter used was just, well, plain. And annoying. You see, I have a love/hate relationship with PowerPoint.

Blast from the Past: Allison Dickerson, Lafayette Utilities System, Business and Marketing Analyst
When did you work at BBR and what did you do?
I worked closely with Cherie and our clients, making sure that their needs were met. I was a liaison between the client and the creative team.
I started working at BBR as an account assistant in 2000. I was promoted to account manager the following year, and left when my first child was born in 2003. (more…)
