Web / Graphic Designer

Curt was raised in Fresno, California before going to the University of California, Irvine on a water polo scholarship. Two years in, he changed his major from Film Studies to Fine Arts — returning to a lifelong passion for drawing and painting. Sam Nguyen recruited Curt to produce graphics for InsideWork and, when it became obvious that Curt was a relational match as well as a fresh visual thinker, his project work turned into a job at InsideWork. Curt approaches design as an extension of his artistic core that occupies a place nearer “pure” art than propaganda. In his off hours, he is working on a tabletop book of original works.
