About me
My name is collin stange,
My name is collin stange,
I am a graphic designer currently based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Graphic Design from The University of Tampa, where I developed my expertise in visual identity, digital fabrication, product design, UI/UX prototyping, and strategic branding systems.
My passion for digital design began at age 16 back in Illinois. Realizing I could create artwork inspired by the things that brought me joy and share that experience with others, I took my first steps with nothing more than an iPhone, an idea, and a free trial of a basic mobile design app. That initial creative spark quickly grew into a obsession, leading me to print my designs, handle my own production, and launch my first venture, Visionair Clothing Co.
Within just 2 months, I had generated over $1,000 in digital artwork and apparel sales. That early success proved that I could turn creative exploration into real-world impact. Today, whether I am building 3D digital assets, physically fabricating custom objects, or redesigning full corporate brand systems, I remain driven by that same goal: creating meaningful design that solves real problems and inspires others.

I recently graduated from The University of Tampa with a BFA in Graphic Design, where I spent years honing my craft across digital branding, 3D digital design, physical fabrication, and UI/UX systems. Since moving from Tampa to Pittsburgh with my girlfriend, I have been establishing myself in the local design community while taking on freelance projects and actively searching for a full-time, long-term design position.
