MILWAUKIE, Ore. – Classic Exhibits Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of portable, modular, and custom-hybrid exhibit solutions, welcomes Katina Rigall to the Classic Design Team. She has an extensive custom design background along with a solid knowledge of portable, modular, and hybrid displays.
Rigall was born and raised in Portland, Ore., and studied interior design and art history at Oregon State University as an undergraduate. “The summer before I graduated and my last semester of college, I worked as a designer for cruise ship interiors. Imagine the themed spaces from the kids’ play areas to the nightclubs. This gave me my first taste of experience design and I loved it.”
After working three years for an interior remodeling firm, Rigall returned to school at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City to get her master’s degree in exhibition design.
“Designing for a custom house on the East Coast for over four years, I am very happy to be returning to my hometown to work with Classic Exhibits where I can continue to do what I love.”
Kevin Carty, VP of sales, stated, “As a member of the EDPA Scholarship Committee, I often meet students from FIT and see their great work. It is especially exciting that Katina is a graduate of the FIT program.” |
