After graduation he began his design career at Chicago's Segura, inc. working on projects for clients such as Corbis, Marlboro, DC Comics & Express Jeans. In 2004 he co-founded Arlo with Patrick Filler. He is now Principal and Creative Director for Arlo. His personal website isn't much to mention just yet...
Patrick Filler scored a degree from Columbia College Chicago. Before co-founding Arlo, he created work for Gatorade, Crate & Barrel, Orbitz, Columbia College Chicago, and The Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Patrick now resides and works in New York.
Silas Dilworth is a type designer and web programmer extraordinaire. He and Ryan met while working at [T-26] and Segura, inc. respectively. They now share an office and collaborate on web projects. Silas is co-owner of TypeTrust, a one-stop-shop for quality fonts.
Kaylee is a dog who sleeps most of the day at the office. When she’s not sleeping, she’s hatching plans to take Silas out. For good.
