Hi, I'm Sydney Wissmar, a recent Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication Design from Miami University with a passion for transforming ideas into clear, memorable visuals. I specialize in print and digital design and have created engaging visuals for university departments and the Toledo Zoo & Aquarium during internships. I love collaborating with cross-functional teams to craft campaigns that resonate with audiences and promote missions. My experience spans freelance work and campus projects, where I helped develop branding, posters, social content, and campaign materials using the Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop) and design tools like Figma and XD. I'm motivated by ambitious brands and enjoy turning complex concepts into approachable visuals. I'm excited to contribute to creative teams, continue learning, and deliver polished work that supports growth and engagement.
