BKWLD

MEET YOUR TEAM

We are a small tight-knit team dedicated to developing both useful and engaging media. Through working with us you will nearly get to know every single one of us as we rely on all our team members for their unique capabilities and insights.

Ryan Vanni

CEO/Founder

"Ryan Vanni - Entrepreneur, verbal, independent, fast track, hard worker...when motivated, short-cuts. Likeable, drums, baseball, sometimes..."

Robert Reinhard

CTO

If someone wrote the lore of BKWLD, the turning point chapter in our story would be the day Robert was hired. It's been Robert's technical direction and dedication to learning new technology that has kept BKWLD at the forefront of our industry. He is equally as strong at crafting the big picture of a project - creating the technical documents and plans that pilot the entire process - as he is writing Actionscript in Flash, coding hardcore PHP or crushing you on Xbox Live.

Josh Reddin

Vice President

Josh comes to us from the world of traditional advertising, bringing a sharp sense of strategy and purpose to our projects. He also brings hugs. Seriously, schedule a meeting with him and you will feel like long lost friends 15 minutes in, rendering you helpless to the goodbye hug. What can we say, he's a passionate man, and we love him for it.

Jeff Toll

Creative Director

Jeff is BKWLD's 'creative conscious' - his drive and desire for great work makes each of us strive to make every project our best. A true creative director, Jeff inspires the best work from those of us fortunate enough to work with him. His unique brand of constructive, peer criticism and tendency to deprecate his own designs make him a beloved member of the BKWLD team. His leadership is integral, but Jeff is equally adept at sitting in front of Photoshop and rocking out an amazing design. Just don’t try to get his attention when he gets in the zone. You’ll be waiting a while.

Dave Brown

Director of Interactive Production

Dave perfectly complements our Seattle office with his blend of drive and creativity. With a history in interactive production, this guy does it all - from balancing client needs with team output to keeping the budget and deadlines in check. A skilled music composer, he's also BKWLD's answer to John Williams, if John Williams played a mean game of air hockey.
