Apoorva Dasari, an Edmond Memorial High School student, has qualified to represent Oklahoma in the Adobe US 2023 National Championship. The competition will be held in June in Orlando, Florida, and will see talented students from across the country compete for the title of national champion.

To qualify for the event, Apoorva passed her Adobe Certified Professional in Visual Communication using Photoshop Certification and submitted a design that a panel of judges reviewed. During the competition, she will have 8 hours to design an asset for a Non-Profit organization. By participating in the event, Apoorva will receive a tablet from Wacom, one of the competition’s sponsors.

The Adobe US National Championship is a prestigious event that brings together some of the most talented students in the country. The competition is designed to showcase the skills and creativity of young people passionate about design. Participants are judged on their ability to create a compelling design that meets the needs of a specific audience and communicates a clear message.

For Apoorva, the opportunity to compete in the Adobe US National Championship is exciting. She has always been interested in design, and the chance to showcase her skills on a national stage is an incredible honor. She is excited to meet other talented students from around the country and to learn from the experience.

In addition to the prestige of winning the national championship, some great prizes are also at stake. The top three winners in each category will receive cash prizes and advance to the Adobe World Championship, which will be held later this year.

For Apoorva, the Adobe US National Championship is a chance to take her skills to the next level and make a name for herself in the design world. We wish her all the best as she prepares for the competition and are proud that she is representing our program and Francis Tuttle Technology Center – Danforth Campus.
