Hi, I’m Tyler, a design-focused illustrator and industrial designer. I earned my Bachelor’s in Industrial Design from Iowa State University, where I developed a passion for the conceptual design process and collaborative creation. I enjoy turning concepts into renderings, CAD models, and final mockups, with hands-on skills in children's book illustration, 2D and 3D workflows, and remote collaboration. I’m excited to contribute to an innovative, collaborative team in an entry-level design role.
