About Me
Summary
Hello, my name is William Williams and I am a graduate of Indiana State University with a degree in graphic design. I am from Chicago Heights, Illinois and also have a passion for creative writing in the form of poetry and short stories.
My journey in the arts began at a young age with a love for drawing and sketching. This passion eventually led me to explore various mediums including sculpting, painting, digital art, animation, and graphic design. In addition to my skills as a designer, I am also a problem-solver with a strong ability to think creatively.
Values
Since art frames the world, high-quality design is essential for impactful client work. I create purposeful designs that elevate communities by helping individuals and brands find their unique voice through branding, marketing, and visual storytelling.

Bless The Mic
This organization aims to offer students a voice on campus through poetry, Hip-hop, singing, and speech. While in the organization, my role on the executive board was to create flyers and graphics for up-coming events.
Black Student Union
The organization developed a sanctuary for minority students on campus. The discussions were about concerns in the African-American community and forming solutions for those issues. I assisted in different events, such as Kwanza, which brought a diversity of students together and strengthen bonds.
Union Board
The organization strategized events on campus. These recreational events were for students who needed a break from classes and studying. As a chairperson, my task was to lead the planning process for these events in the fall semester.
