As Principal and Global Discipline Leader for Perkins+Will Branded Environments, Eileen Jones utilizes a research-based design approach that identifies and integrates a client's unique mission, vision, values and culture into tangible brand expressions, experiences, and environments.

Working with the Group's founder, Eva Maddox, for over 25 years, Ms. Jones has been instrumental in the development and practice of the firm's Branded Environments approach. Eileen has provided Branded Environments services to many leaders within the corporate, education, healthcare and civic arenas. She has led strategic research, community cultural interpretation, brand master planning and positioning, identity, product, and design development.

Ms. Jones is frequently recognized for design excellence, garnering multiple awards with her project teams, and speaks regularly at many educational and professional venues, advancing the ideas of Branded Environments. We look forward to welcoming Ms. Jones as the Keynote Speaker of this year's conference, as students facing the job market look for ideas to develop and enhance their own brand. Limited luncheon tickets are available for purchase to the industry and to the public.
