Rio is my name—just like the car, the Vegas hotel, the city, the river, that one bird movie, and that famous Duran Duran song.

I live, work, and play in beautiful Portland, Oregon creating all sorts of sweet looking stuff. With an AAS in graphic design and a BA in Psychology I have a deep appreciation for how design impacts mood and how it influences the world around us.

I am passionate about color, branding, ui/ux, packaging, and typography, but in all honesty I’m pretty much a sucker for everything and anything design related.

I am available for commissions, short-term and long-term projects, and other freelance gigs. Have something in mind? Reach out and give me a holler; I would love to work with you and make something awesome!
