About
Julian Sunde
Digital Designer
Gold Coast, Australia
I am a Digital Designer with experience in social media ad design, web design, and logo design. I have a Bachelor of Information Technology, Majoring in UX Design; and a Bachelor of Arts, Majoring in French and Japanese from the University of Queensland.
Through my work experience and my studies, I have gained valuable experience collaborating in a team environment as well as a host of design, coding, and organisational skills.
I consider my main strengths as a designer to be my aesthetic sensibility, my quick turnaround, and my ability to incorporate feedback in my designs. When designing, I particularly value consistency and attention to detail as they result in polished, easy to digest designs.
Experience
October-December 2025
As the designer for the Paid Media Team, I was tasked with creating social media ads in line with client and team requirements. My responsibilities in this role included:
- Developing creative assets for social media ad campaigns that align with the provided brief, client assets, and previous client ad campaigns.
- Adapting my design layouts to suit placement and platform as required – ranging from stories to posts to videos.
- Creating brand kits and social media banner assets for new clients, while also shaping the brand application in their ads.
- Managing deadlines, refining internal design brief processes, and collaborating with the campaign managers and the Head of Design.
In my short time at Edge, I gained valuable guidance from the head of design and grew to become a highly valued member of the team due to my efficiency, collaboration skills, and high-quality designs. Unfortunately, due to an internal restructure, my role was no longer required and my employment was terminated.
September-November 2022
I redesigned the society’s logo, social media graphics, and website. During the process, I overcame remote communication difficulties with the executive committee and learnt the Webflow platform to deliver a final design suite in line with client feedback.
April-November 2022
Working with the client, I implemented their website design vision using Wix – gaining further experience with the platform in the process. I also improved my communication skills through the collaborative design process of creating the site with the client.
January-December 2021
As Graphic Designer, I redesigned the club’s branding and gained experience in consistently applying a brand design across both digital and physical mediums. While as Treasurer, I strengthened my leadership and decision-making skills.
September-October 2020
In a team, I completed a ‘Work Integrated Learning’ placement translating a text as a part of a university course. During the project, I gained confidence in my Japanese and experience working in a remote team environment.
