Hi there! I'm Wendy Yang, a graphic designer & creative based in Toronto, ON.
Visual Identity ✸ Publishing ✸ Social Media ✸ Typography ✸ Structural Packaging ✸ Print Production
I am a fourth-year Graphic Communications Management student at Toronto Metropolitan University, with a minor in Communication Design and a concentration in Packaging.
My first brush with design was with my iPod Touch in middle school, where as a crafty, pop culture-obsessed teen, I would gather a plethora of free apps and spend hours making collages of my favourite musicians and celebrities.
Even now, I continue to gravitate towards all things creative. My professional experience spans both the public and private sectors as an in-house and freelance designer, which includes work within the publishing and finance industries.
Outside of design, I spend my time listening to boy bands, going to concerts, and crafting the perfect Spotify playlists. I also have a growing collection of stationery and vinyl records!
