About Daniel Phounsavan

I am a Mongolian, Chinese, and Laotian Visual Designer passionate about art, music, and culture who is excited about serving communities through my designs. A graduate of the communication and sociology programs at the University of California, Santa Barbara and the multimedia arts program at Berkeley City College, I am dedicated to helping clients reach their goals and enjoy collaborating with colleagues to meet tight deadlines. As a graphic designer for the American Youth Literacy Literacy Foundation, I design custom merchandise layouts and social media content to promote the FUNetix Reading App, which teaches children to read in 12 hours. I also make revisions to any design errors found in the app and work on layouts and typesetting using Sketch. At Apollo Future Technology, I designed online banners, printed materials, and email templates for digital marketing, as well as manage their social media channels. I curated visual content for their website redesign by managing their Shopify for their online store. I also created blog posts and generated backlinks to improve SEO and acted a liaison between influencers reviewing products on social media and the Apollo marketing team. At BRIDGEGOOD, I collaborated with a team of designers to reimagine BRIDGEGOOD's Welcome Page, UX Design Apprenticeship, and Inspire Oakland web pages through User Experience, User Interface, and Visual Design. In my role as a graphic designer for the Occupational Workplace Experience in Media at Berkeley City College, I helped generate social media content that emphasized the importance of voter registration. I also created promotional material for a Berkeley City College film workshop held over Zoom. As an illustrator and communications manager for the Association for Breast Cancer Disease, I organized important media assets. I created instructional diagrams to illustrate medical concepts and edited research documents via Microsoft Office. At Berkeley City College, I ​have designed award-winning pieces for organizations, such as BRIDGEGOOD and the Community Health Education Institute, to benefit the East Bay community.
