#SERVEMKE VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT: CARSYN MCKENZIE

This week’s #ServeMKE spotlight has been a dedicated Serve volunteer for years. Carsyn Taylor continues to use her design skills to bring awareness to meaningful causes. She is always willing to help Serve with any creative needs.
1. What are your main responsibilities as an Art Director for BVK?
As an Art director, my responsibilities include generating ideas for projects, producing designs for campaigns, and directing photoshoots along with day-to-day project management.
2. How many years have you been a volunteer for Serve?

I’ve been volunteering for almost 3 years now.
3. What has been your favorite project to work on as a volunteer with Serve?

That’s hard to say but I would pick the Storefront Campaign we did for Get Checked Omaha to bring awareness to STDs in their city. It was the first campaign that I was involved with from start to finish.

4. What’s the strangest thing you’ve been asked to create for a Serve campaign?

Letters that were covered in REAL STDs. For about 3 months or so, new and old coworkers would come into my office asking me the same question: “What are you working on?” 

5. What do you like most about volunteering with Serve?

Making a true impact on great causes that deserve to have great work.

6. Who is your favorite non-profit in Milwaukee?

I’m all about local support so here’s some of my favorites (Sorry, not sorry and not in any order): TRUE Skool, Inc.88Nine RadioMilwaukeeGreater TogetherPublic AlliesFirst StageCopyWrite MagazineLa Causa, Inc.
