About Me

YNC(SW/AW/EXW) Kasondra Parker, USN (Ret.)

Hello, Beautiful People!

Hi! I'm a graphic design student and aspiring UX/UI and Web Designer with a background in the U.S. Navy with a passion for creating meaningful, user-centered experiences.

My interest span visual design, web design, event experiences, and creative problem-solving. I enjoy bringing ideas together, creating structure, and finding thoughtful ways to make things both functional and visually engaging.

Outside of design, I enjoy painting, organizing spaces, listening to Christian music, and spending time with my family.

I'm currently expanding my design skills through my studies and hands-on projects, building a foundation in design principles, user experience, and digital creativity.

I'm excited about the possibilities ahead and look forward to continuing to learn, create, and bring ideas to life.

My Background

A different path. A new creative direction.

My journey into design hasn't been a traditional one.  After 22 years in the U.S. Navy, I'm embracing a new chapter that brings together my professional experience and my growing passion for creativity.

Throughout my career, I've enjoyed bringing organization to complex situations, finding solutions, creating structure, and helping ideas come together. I've discovered that many of those same qualities translate naturally into design.

Today, I'm exploring how I can combine that practical mindset with creativity to create thoughtful, engaging, and purposeful experiences.

My Design Interests

Drawn to the details. Inspired by possibilities.

I'm fascinated by the way design influences how we see, experience, and interact with the world around us. 

From the visual identity of a brand to the way someone navigates a website, I enjoy exploring how individual elements come together to create something cohesive and meaningful.

My interests extend beyond the screen, too. I love the creative process behind organizing spaces, developing concepts, and bringing people together through thoughtfully designed experiences. 

Whether it's a digial interface, a visual identity, or a creative concept, I'm drawn to work that balances aesthetics, functionality, and purpose.

My Learning Journey

Curiosity is part of the process.

I'm currently pursuing my education in Media Technologies: Design for Web and Print Concentration for my Associate of Applied Science Degree and continuing to explore the many possibilities within digital and visual design. 

I'm particularly interested in developing my understanding of user experience, interface design, visual communication, and the creative tools that bring ideas to life.

My current learning journey includes: 

  • =
    Digital Design: Figma, interface design, and prototyping.
  • =
    Adobe Creative Suite: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign.
  • =
    Design Foundations: Typography, color theory, visual hierarchy, and composition.
  • =
    User Experience: User-centered design, information architecture, and wireframing.

I believe good design is about more than making something look appealing. It's about understanding the purpose behind it, considering the people who will experiene it, and making intentional choices along the way.

I'm still learning, experimenting, and discovering my own creative voice, and that's one of the things I enjoy most about this journey.
