A designer’s eye.
An educator’s perspective.

I’m Ryan McClung, an instructional designer and design educator. My work connects graduate course development, interactive learning experiences, brand strategy, visual identity, and presentations.

Across those disciplines, I’m interested in the same question: how can a thoughtful design decision help someone understand, act, or improve?

I work from research and a clear purpose, connect the details into a coherent experience, and make room for feedback and refinement.

03 / How I approach the work
01

Understand first.

Get close to the audience, the context, and the problem before deciding what to make.

02

Connect the pieces.

Align strategy, language, visuals, and interaction around a clear purpose.

03

Build. Learn. Refine.

Make the idea tangible, invite useful feedback, and use what emerges to guide the next iteration.

Get in touch.
