About me

Hi! I'm Sydney, and I'm a dedicated user experience designer and 3D animator with a passion for creating accessible, eye-catching designs.

I strongly value listening to users and incorporating feedback every single day, and I highly prioritize practicality and feasibility in my designs before focusing on making everything look intriguing and clean. I'm passionate about keeping users' needs above my own as a designer, and I enjoy keeping an open communication with users to ensure that my designs are as inclusive and accessible as possible.

I am about to graduate from the Graphic Design program at Iowa State University, where I've been studying design as a whole with a focus on user experience, 3D modeling, animation, branding, and logo design. Here, I've been working with Adobe Creative Suite products and Cinema 4D for the last four years. I've also mastered designing and prototyping user interfaces in Figma through both school and my current job as a part-time user experience designer at John Deere.

Outside of work, I love diving into nerdy or crafty interests such as Dungeons and Dragons, video games (particularly the Legend of Zelda franchise), crocheting, and playing board games with friends.
