Wesley Rorex - Ferguson Center Art Gallery Coordinator
Hometown: Guntersville, Ala.
Major: Clothing, Textile and Design - Fashion Retailing (emphasis in visual merchandising)

Wes started working in the Ferg in August 2009. He says his favorite thing about working at the Ferg is "meeting all the wonderful faculty and student staff that make everything work behind the scenes to create an exciting environment for the students of UA." Since working in the Art Gallery, Wes has learned that "sometimes, to make things work, you have to take a step back and view things from a different perspective."
