Maryel Sparks-Cardinal
Social Media Coordinator, UX/UI Designer, Graphic Designer, Communications Specialist, Digital Marketer, Photographer and Videographer

I am Cree and Métis from Treaty 6 Territory. I currently live on ʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwu7mesh (Squamish) and Tsleil-Waututh territories in so-called Vancouver BC. I have worked with a variety of different peoples and teams including Indigenous nations, non-profits, charities, private/public companies and grassroots organizations.

I have a wide range of skills with a background in Indigenous youth work, film production, education, communications, policy, user experience design, climate justice and project management, I bring a diverse and creative eye to my work.

I am able to see projects I am involved with in a different way. I am able to use my distinct way of thinking and wide skill set to think of creative executions and perceptive solutions. I see each project as unique and I am able to develop exclusive solutions that others would not be able to identify; this translates to amazing results for my projects and clients.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of British Columbia, a UX Design Diploma from BrainStation and a Film Production Diploma from InFocus Film school.
