Hello, there!

I’m Sydney Jansen, a multimedia producer and writer who specializes in scientific communication.

I am passionate about storytelling and innovation, both of which I strive to incorporate in all of my work. I love using various mediums for storytelling, especially visual mediums such as photography and videography. I think multimedia campaigns are so special because not only do they make messaging more accessible to wider audiences, but they create different “lenses” through which people can take in a story.

Being a recent graduate, I have discovered some new hobbies including writing poetry and painting with watercolor. When I’m not doing something creative, I’m usually spending time at my family’s farm with all of the animals.

I have always had a special passion for photography, and have run my own portrait photography business in the Northern Colorado area for around 6 years. I have been fortunate to photograph a wedding, engagements, and countless other special moments!

If you have any inquiries about myself or my work, feel free to contact me using the information below.
