Statement

Hi there friends! I’m Riley Rose Gish from the Pacific Northwest. Growing up I have always known two things about myself: that I loved art and I had a strong desire to help people. I embarked on a 3 year journey in the Illustration department at ArtCenter before realizing I needed to participate in real-world, solution-based thinking.

As a Product designer, I am drawn to the world of healthcare, specifically reproductive and adolescent health. I start by molding a deeply empathetic understanding of research, synthesizing these discoveries into valuable insights, resulting in solutions that surpass aesthetics. Spicing it up with my illustrative background, I tell comprehensive stories with whimsy, bringing a playfulness to what are often serious and heavy topics. I believe we can create positive incremental change in our world and I want to be a part of the team that makes that happen.
