Bryan was born and raised in Southwest Montana.
Looking to get into a career in “commercial art,” Bryan migrated to Tacoma, Washington, in the shadow of Mount Rainier.
He finished school a semester early with a Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design and started working in downtown Seattle in the late 90s.
With a diverse but seemly random set of skills and interests in graphic design, illustration, music, expository speaking, and live corporate events, it wasn’t until computers got fast enough to process motion graphics on desktop machines and the internet became fast enough to stream video for Bryan’s vision of running a virtual boutique agency to be realized.
Bryan now owns the award-winning creative studio SINTR®, based in Bozeman, where he lives with his wife Anne and three daughters.
He is a three-time Emmy® Award winner for Broadcast Television campaigns in Seattle.
His 20+ years of multimedia design experience spans nationally recognized multi-screen and ultra-HD widescreen motion graphic videos for some of the biggest brands in the United States.

"I think this type of storytelling works great for Montanans of all ages because it is visually captivating and can tell a story with images that stretch from ancient times, into the future. Montana's open land and epic history are beautiful subjects for animated stories that inspire wonder and awe. "
