HOWDY, I'M IAN BYRD.

A detail oriented designer focused on growth with a passion for living.

The number 1 word people would use to describe me as is outgoing, and it's true. I love being with people, and beyond that, I love helping them find their message through design. Coming from Portland, Oregon I first found design through my Highschool Graphic Design class and that's what got the ball rolling.

Since then I've been pursing a life in design. Whether it be looking at the signs while I lived Chile or the fonts on a screen, I know that I want to design. This drives my actions and it will only continue to push me to try new things.
