Tyler J. Mallory

Los Angeles based Creative Director and Photographer with a background in fine arts and a degree in graphic design. Growing up in a once small country town known as Moses Lake, WA. Spending my summer days on the lake, in a canal or traveling to the ocean for some waves (Westport, WA for life!). Raised in a split home, half of my life was also spent in the Seattle, WA area with my old man! Most of our time was spent crabbing, fishing or exploring the great outdoors. Dude taught me to ski by the age of 5 and I was on a board by 7. Naturally my influences have become evenly spread between the small town traditional style graphics, and the louder more mainstream urban influences. Being someone from the Pacific Northwest the outdoors have always played a key role in my life. I am passionate about the outdoors and staying close to the ocean. My office more often then not can be in the back of the Jeep lost somewhere in the woods, diving deep into some sketches or shooting photos for another brand.

"TJ was a crucial member of the product delivery team for the successful launch of Red Bull TV. A natural leader, TJ helped develop and implement a workflow process that managed a team of approximately 10 designers to create over 15,000 assets on a strict deadline. In addition to his design strengths and leadership abilities, TJ is an all-around great guy to work with. TJ has an incredibly positive attitude, produces consistently high quality materials, and was a source of valuable feedback. I would work with TJ again without hesitation and look forward to crossing paths professionally in the future."
