About

Hey there! My name is Taylor Collier, and I’m a graphic designer and illustrator from Birmingham, AL (and I won’t let you forget it!). I have experimented with different art mediums for as long as I can remember. Fueled primarily by Black culture and hip-hop elements, I started creating personal projects that led to a freelancing path. Now, I work as a professional graphic designer with education in digital marketing and data visualization.

With over 5 years of personal and professional experience, I am knowledgeable in establishing and maintaining brand solutions, designing logos, and a variety of print and digital material. I find fulfillment in being a passionate artist, who is capable of thriving in both team and solo-driven environments with a love for all things art. My mission is to create unique, vibrant design solutions for clients to help them showcase their visions and tell their stories. I aim always to be a resource to my culture and community, using an interpersonal and collaborative approach. Take a look at my work to get an idea of what I can do!

Fun Facts:

  • I’m a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.
  • I’m a Disney adult; I’m probably listening to a Disney soundtrack right now!
  • I have a cat named King, and she wears the pants in my home.
