Hey, I’m Ryan. I’ve spent the last several years crafting purposeful work at a Chicagoland marketing firm. I love using design as my own way of creative problem solving, fusing strategic thinking with high-level execution to solve complex challenges. With a versatile toolkit and end-to-end capabilities, I have led projects across a variety of industries in print, presentation, web, social, and motion projects.

I began my design journey in high school, learning basic design principles and creative tools through work with fellow peers and local bands in the Chicagoland area. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2019 with a Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design. In 2017, I was awarded the Lois Marie Orr Scholarship for showcasing excellence in design.
