About me

Stephanie Strawbridge

I’m a service-oriented professional with an affinity for design. Previously, I’ve exercised leadership on digital initiatives of major Canadian retailers. Currently, I strive to create inclusive and accessible publications in the government sector. At York University, I earned a Bachelor of Design, Specialty Honours, with an undergraduate thesis in web accessibility. After some industry experience and completing the certification exam, I became a Registered Graphic Designer (RGD) across Canada.
