Haley Fairfax Rountree joined the MSU Office of Public Affairs as a graphic designer in September 2022. She immediately began making an impact developing print and digital visual solutions for clients across the university. She previously worked as a visual information specialist at the Columbus Air Force Base.
A fine arts graduate from the Mississippi University for Women, Rountree was named Graphic Design Student of the Year in 2020--the same year she completed her degree. She was the first recipient of the Eugenia Summer Art and Design Scholarship and placed first in overall achievement at the Annual Juried Student Exhibition in both 2018 and 2019. During her time as a student, she was also named an honored artist by the Mississippi State Committee National Museum of Women in the Arts and twice earned first place honors at the Mississippi Collegiate Art Competition.
A noted local artist, Rountree’s work can be found in area murals and has been featured in exhibitions across the Golden Triangle over the last four years. In addition to showings with the Starkville Area Arts Council and at J. Broussard’s restaurant in Columbus, she most recently showcased her art at the Mississippi University for Women Alumni Invitational Exhibition.
