COOPER SKINNER
GRAPHIC DESIGN
My name is Cooper Skinner, and I am a graphic designer with a deep passion for sports media. In my current role with Iowa State Women’s Basketball, I have specialized in both digital and physical print design, creating visuals that emphasize the energy and identity of the Cyclones.
When I was a collegiate athlete, I became obsessed with hard work, dedication, and consistency. Now, as a designer, my obsession remains. I approach my designs with a competitive edge, never settling for an average product.
I am currently seeking design opportunities in the sports industry where I can continue to make an impact, elevating the team and fan experience.
