Hi! My name is Rio, I am an artist and illustrator that works out of Los Angeles. I’ve been living in
LA for a decade and really love it. In 2011, I created a creative design business and worked with many clients throughout the years. I worked as an illustrator and designer for various companies including, Carolinas Healthcare Company, Atrium Health, Exploding Kittens, and Lieberman Software. At Exploding Kittens I concepted and illustrated the game "Hurry Up Chicken Butt". This game won the 2024 preschool game of the year. I was brought on to many projects as a concept artist, colorist, and layout designer. I love to collaborate and work in teams. I also have taught myself tattooing and have been creating original art and tattooing for 1 year. I have many passions in my life. I enjoy trail running, hiking, surfing, writing, reading, taking long baths, writing music, and hanging with people I love.
