Hello! My name is Sydney Cooling-Sturges.

I'm a multidisciplinary designer with a passion for insight-led, human-centered design. I am also a lifelong learner, peer mentor, data enthusiast, nature fanatic & human-loving extrovert. Thank you for taking this extra step to get to know me!

By day, I'm a Service Designer at Bridgeable and by night, I’m a Lead Creative Consultant and Workshop Host with the Habit Factory Space. I hold an undergraduate degree in Industrial (Product) Design from OCAD University and a certificate in UI Design from BrainStation.

My experiences in life and professionally are fueled by my passion for improving the lives of others and the world around me. As a result, you’ll often find me asking questions with the goal of uncovering big ideas, seeing problems as opportunities for improvement, and embarking on new and unfamiliar roles and experiences in order to gain valuable knowledge and perspective that I can apply to my creative process.

My multidisciplinary background in design allows me to always think about a problem from multiple points of view at any and every stage in the design process. Design, research, and production constraints are actively considered in every stage of my creative process, resulting in effective, impactful, and thoughtful creative solutions.

What's with the circles?

Small green circle quickly growing and shrinking
I’m a lifelong learner with a focus on growth.
A thin, black dashed line slowly getting longer with each dash, connecting a small blue circle on the left to a small red circle on the right.
I'm all about connecting the dots.
A small yellow circle shrinking down to reveal individual sun rays. The sun rays rotate 15 degrees three times to return the sun back to its starting position, and grows back to its original size.
Like the sun, I want to brighten up your day.
