About

AaronStravinsky_b.jpg
 

Hello!

I’m Aaron Van Fossen, an art director and designer in St. Petersburg, Florida. I’m a wanna-be renaissance man, addicted to the feeling of trying something new. I have a deep (fried) love for fish tacos, and an even deeper, bass-thumping-in-your-chest love for live music.

I studied Graphic Design at the University of Northern Iowa. That may seem like a surprise to you, but yes, Iowa does have the internet now.

Wanna work together? Reach out using any of the links below. Or just find me at Green Bench during a Packers game and come say hi.
