A Message from Dean Schupbach

Dear Westphal Class of 2024,

Congratulations on your upcoming graduation from Drexel's Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design! During your time here, you've proven to be adept and innovative thinkers, makers, and leaders. You have impressed us with your creativity, your curiosity, your collaborative spirit, and your courage. On behalf of the entire Westphal community — the faculty and professional staff who have supported you, the classmates who shared your experiences, and our network of alumni around the world — we are so proud of you!

I am thrilled to announce that the keynote speaker for the Westphal ceremony will be Breonna Danielle Rodriguez Delgrosso. A Class of 2004 alum of Drexel Westphal with a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design, Rodriguez Delgrosso is currently the head of Ads Privacy UX at Google. Her 22-year career, rooted in a love for design, has evolved into a pioneering role in digital advertising and user experience. Before her tenure at Google, she served as the senior director for Brand Design & UX at Sesame Street, playing a key role in revamping the brand globally and significantly expanding their social media presence. A two-time Emmy nominee, Breonna has collaborated with top-tier brands such as McDonald's, Coca-Cola, Vanity Fair, GQ, nearly every Philadelphia sports team, and more, demonstrating a unique talent for blending creative content with strategic marketing. Beyond her corporate achievements, she is passionate about personal development and mental health, mentoring budding designers and entrepreneurs, guiding them to realize their visions in the rapidly changing digital world.

I can't wait to personally greet you on stage at your Commencement ceremony this June. Congratulations again!

Sincerely,

Jason Schupbach
Dean, Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design
