Ok. So, you probably don’t know how to pronounce my last name unless you’re from Holland, so let’s start there. It sounds like Bryce. Not Breeze. Not Bridges. Or my favorite—Berjus. But everyone mispronounces it, so have a go. I’m game.

Originally hailing from Utah, I am the offspring of a Commercial Artist and a Marketing Maven. I knew at an early age that I either wanted to become a professional break dancer or work in advertising. I chose the latter, but have come to find that it requires me to be just as nimble.

I earned a BFA in graphic design from the University of Utah and have street cred as a former graffiti artist. I love what I do. I appreciate a great concept as much as its execution. I love visually integrating typography into my work. I communicate well and I am friendly, but not in a creepy way.

With over a decade of building sports, lifestyle and wellness brands, I consider myself to be a steadfast creative leader, fearless idea maker, and versatile artist with an insatiable passion for storytelling.

Specialties include: Conceptual and creative development, client relationship development, team leadership, creative direction, photo shoot art direction, graphic design: digital and print.
