Reese Butler

Statement

Hi! My name is Reese Butler. I am an enthusiastic outdoorsman, a meticulous craftsman and a passionate designer. Born and bred in the great state of California, my life outside has always inspired me to create. Through educational and professional experiences, what started as an interest in designing technical gear grew to a drive for creating innovate solutions and solving problems that empower others in all realms. I believe function defines form and nothing should be made that doesn’t improve on existing solutions. I am an immersive designer that throws himself 100% into research, advanced prototyping, testing and problem solving, while always considering the environmental impact. Whether I’m climbing 1,000 feet of slick granite or collaborating in a fast-paced studio environment, you can always depend on me to deliver for my team.
