HELLO!
My name is Matt Rinehart. A little about me is ever since childhood, I loved to draw. It wasn’t until high school that this love evolved into a deep appreciation for art and design. I have since studied and graduated from California State University Fullerton with my BFA degree in graphic design. While working towards this goal, I have developed a passion for mixing illustration and humor (where possible) into my design work. I am so thankful for my friends, family, and peers who motivate and support me to continue growing as a designer and person. Thanks for taking a look at some of my work!
