About Ryan Sims

Born and raised in the Midwest, I developed a fascination for design when I got my first computer and a copy of Photoshop as a high school graduation gift. For nearly two decades my appreciation for gradients and whitespace, layout and type has yielded products that are elegant yet approachable. After years of design leadership at Rdio, Adobe, and Stripe, I am now the Chief Design Officer at Duolingo.
