Ryerson Art+Design Magazine (RADmag) was born out of a vision to create a medium of celebration, inspiration, and collaboration — Celebrate and showcase the work of students in Photography, Fashion, and Interior Design. Provide an outlet to inspire one another and the world at large. And aid in connecting students in these related visual disciplines, that often work in isolation on campus, even though we will likely be co-creators after graduation.
Issue 00 Alumni Issue.
Founder, Editor in Chief, and Interactive Designer.
This issue gathered work from notable recent grads as a sample issue of what we envisioned RADmag to be. It was made available online, in print through self publishing, and on iPad. It was the critical tool to demonstrate to sponsors on campus what the magazine could be become with their support.

Through my second year leading RADmag there was a budget increase of 775%, the team grew from 7 to 35 as we transitioned to a bi-annual printing schedule. We gained external stockists in Toronto. I oversaw the production of Issues 02 & 03, as well as the first ever launch event at The Great Hall in January 2015.
