Interactive Designer / Artist / Photographer / Music Zealot / Cibernauta / Proud Wife / Little Mama / Pamilya Girl / True Friend / Believer / Evolver

Sissyphus Design is the studio of Katherine Slack, an interactive designer + photographer in Washington, DC. Within the last decade, I have worked for a variety of intelligent branding firms + interactive teams. I am a designer who loves to create apropos visual solutions for the web. I continually educate myself, practice, + believe in relevant design, web standards, meticulous attention to detail, organization, + clean, thoughtful typography. Self-education is constantly in flux in the ever-evolving interactive space, so I am endlessly reading, learning, + trying to better myself as a designer + as a thinker.

I am currently working as an Interaction Designer for Discovery Education’s user experience team. Most recently, I was an Interactive Designer at Discovery Creative, the internal agency behind Discovery Communications responsible for epic HD specials + shows such as Life, Planet Earth, Deadliest Catch, Mythbusters, + LA Ink.

In addition, I am passionately devoted to capturing meaningful portraiture + documentary photography where emotion is essential + timing is everything. Not to mention, I prefer to cut my own hair.

In the heart of it all, I am an artist who used to spend hours upon hours getting lost in my drawings. It was in my college years when I discovered a love for all things design. I received a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design with a foundation in print from the Savannah College of Art + Design. Typography I/II are design courses at SCAD that made an immense impression on me as well as B+W Photography + Development.
