About me

Hello! My name is Sydney Walker. I’m a creative graphic designer that strives to create designs that are NOT only visually appealing, but has made a meaningful and lasting impact. With more than 2 years of experience, I’ve worked with clients from non - profit organizations who focuses on projects that is related to fundraising, marketing, operations and more. My area of expertise includes brand identity, print media and social media content. As a designer, I’m always looking for ways to push the boundaries of what’s possible…NOT what’s impossible to create. The realm of design is never without constraints that can hold our curiosity.

InTERN With #ICaNHELP

As a seasonal intern at #ICANHELP, I was paired with a small group of teammates and mentors who have supported me throughout our one-on-one conversations and weekly meetings by giving me apparent advice and transparent feedback.

In addition to working on projects that were impactful and meaningful. I was able to create and design digital social media content that provided students and teens with the knowledge and skills that are necessary to create awareness of mental health and protect themselves and others from cyberbullying and other types of abuse.

THE FUTURE and the now

I was selected to create and design a t-shirt for the Digital4Good summit and it turned out to be impressive and awe-inspiring. The symbolism of the design encourages students to break barriers, embrace empowerment, and advocate for positive change in today’s society by recognizing themselves as both the “future and the right now.”

BTS

Inspired by Peter Saville, a British graphic designer who has designed several record sleeves, covers, and packages. Based on his edgy design of work, I have created a minimalistic and simple album series based on typography and floral. As a group, BTS continues to signify the desire to block out stereotypes, criticisms, and expectations that aim to be individuals and free to express themselves.

NATIONALflowers

Inspired by places that I would like to visit while learning about their history and culture. I created a postcard series based on typography. The technique creates a bold, dynamic, and flourishing design. The colors are based on the “national flowers” that I used to convey their national flag, while some are based on poster ideas which are red, yellow, white, and blue.
