Bio
Chad Vaughan
I worked with Bryan years ago producing large format tradeshow graphics for a design company in San Francisco. Bryan always showed up with a smile on his face and was enthusiastic to take on projects that could be overwhelming and intimidating for most designers. I admired his dedication and eagerness to learn-he just absorbed everything. He could take criticism well and enjoyed getting (ALL) of the client’s content to not only fit, but appear clean and legible. His ability to adapt to fast turnarounds for high maintenance clients was such a plus. He always had my back and always had my confidence. When work was really stressful and deadlines were looming, he’d find a way to navigate the stress with his humor and wit. We worked long hours together and produced an enormous amount of work under ridiculously short timelines. He came on as a graphic designer and left as an art director. Honest, humble and not afraid to ask questions- if you’re looking to hire a skilled designer to see your project through (without the ego), Bryan Khorge is your guy.

I've had the pleasure of working with Bryan many times over the past decade. Whether I was working as a consultant, for a Fortune 500 company, or a small university, Bryan has always been able scale his services for my company or clients. He is a great collaborator, and has taken my rough ideas and turned them into stunning print collateral, interactive PDFs, and eye-catching digital graphics that consistently perform well in campaigns. I'd highly recommend Bryan's services and professional expertise.
