About Me
Blending creativity, design, and technology to craft engaging, brand-driven digital experiences.
I’m Banta Sylla — Designer and creative technologist exploring entry-level roles and internships where I can bring together graphic design, marketing, product design, and development to create visually compelling, user-focused solutions. I specialize in blending creativity with technical execution, using tools like Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, and modern web technologies to bring ideas to life. With experience in branding, motion graphics, and multimedia production, as well as UX/UI principles and prototyping, I’m passionate about creating designs that connect with audiences and drive engagement. Drawing from the discipline and teamwork of my background as a college athlete, I approach every project with adaptability, collaboration, and a commitment to delivering impactful results.
