Sydney Ayers

About: I'm a creative and user-oriented designer with an eye toward visual design and immersive experiences. My passion lies in delivering responsive and detailed solutions tailored to multifaceted challenges that foster exploration, innovation, and adaptive problem-solving. At UNT, I’ve been able to explore my passion for design by expanding my knowledge into art history and anthropology — and I’ve expanded my love and fascination by learning the intersection of exhibition and interaction.

What makes me curious? I’ve always been inspired by the whimsy of the world around me, and although I no longer dig for bugs in the backyard as I did during my childhood, the desire to explore leads my curiosity.
