Ryan Pairitz Email & Phone Number

I’m a developer and designer skilled in a number of technologies and design apps. I’m passionate about creating unique identities, products, and seamless interfaces that can hook audiences with a blend of clarity and expression — and motion design. I'm currently working on Pruun, a SaaS landscaping marketplace and CRM. We just won 2nd place overall and $15,000 at the 2024 University of Dayton Pitch Competition.ABOUT ME💻 8 years working in Database Management🎨 6 years as a Visual & Brand Designer📱 Product (UI/UX) Designer & Developer➰ Motion Designer👨‍🎨 Obsessed w/ geometric logos & icons and telling brand stories through animations & illustrationsTECHNOLOGIES & LANGUAGES- Adobe Creative Cloud- JavaScript, ReactJS- HTML, CSS- JSON- Git- C/C++- Python- Java- SQL- Shell Scripting- VS CodeIn 2013, I trained in Database Management and began work for CPG in 2015. I've since worked on projects utilizing FileMaker Pro, SQL, MySQL, JSON, and Shell Scripting. This led me to form an interest in app development, at which point I learned—through an online course from Stanford University—iOS development using Swift, and later Android development using Java, then cross-OS development in React Native.In 2013, I also trained in Graphic Design and Web Development. In 2017, I founded Pairijee, LLC, through which I provided freelance Graphic & Web Design Consulting for small businesses.In 2019, I was selected to serve as a Designer for The Shirt Project at Notre Dame, which produces the highest-selling piece of collegiate apparel in the nation, whose annual sales are projected to be around 165,000 units.Through my work as a developer and my history as a graphic designer, I was naturally motivated to bridge the gap and learn UX Design, to design and de-risk my own apps before I even start implementing the code. One of which—ivi, a peer-to-peer networking app—participated in the 2022 Race to Revenue incubator cohort at Notre Dame.My own involvement in the startup space at the IDEA Center at ND inspired me to establish the brand identity for companies emerging from Indiana University and Notre Dame.DESIGN- Brand/Visual Identity (Logo Design, Voice, Color Palettes, Typography, Brand Guidelines) - Illustrator, XD- Iconography - Illustrator- Illustration - Illustrator, Photoshop- Photography/Photo Editing - Photoshop, Lightroom- Videography/Video Editing - Photoshop, Premiere Pro- Animation - After Effects, Bodymovin- UI/UX Design - Figma, XD- Pitch Decks/Print Materials - InDesign- Information Visualization - Illustrator, InDesign
