[Visual Design] New Recognition Badge: Event Evangelist Badge

Current Behavior

Layer5 recently announced an enhancement to the ways in which it recognizes milestones achieved by contributors and users. (see community handbook) with an improved badge award system --> https://badges.layer5.io/.

Desired Behavior

An initial set of badges exists, however, there are a number of new badges that need to be created. This issue calls for a volunteer to draft a new badge.

Who is this badge for?

What milestone does this badge recognize?

This badge is awarded to individuals who represent the project at conferences or events.

Implementation

1. Leverage Layer5 brand guide to create designs for a new badge.
2. Create one or more new badge design drafts in the community Figma file on the Assets: Member Cards and Badges page. Alternatively, after submitting a community member form, request the badges.ai file if you prefer to work with Adobe Illustrator.
3. Post your Call-for-Design-Review on https://discuss.layer5.io/.
4. Attend a weekly "Websites" meeting (held on Mondays), present your design, and receive feedback.

Acceptance Tests

1. Community (at-large) has been given an opportunity to review.
2. Maintainers have reviewed and approved badge designs.
3. Once the design is finalized and approved then you can make the PR in the badges repository after adding the badge in the badge folder inside assets and the static folder in repo.
