Stephanie is the Chief Design Officer at Zulu Alpha Kilo. Her expertise lies in establishing brand visions for the future and translating how a brand looks, feels, and behaves across experiences, products, and services.

Her work has earned global recognition at every major award show, including The One Show, D&AD, Cannes Lions, ADC, and Fast Company's Innovation by Design. Among her most celebrated contributions is championing the world's first encyclopedia for Microaggressions, The Micropedia, which garnered international acclaim.

Stephanie is passionate about nurturing the next generation of design talent. She co-chaired Canada's inaugural Young Lions Design jury and has mentored emerging artists through the National YoungArts Foundation, many of whom go on to be recognized as U.S. Presidential Scholars in the Arts.

In her spare time, you’ll find Stephanie binging music documentaries or getting messy with her 7-year-old daughter, usually involving paint, Eye Spy puzzles, and K-pop duets.

For more than twenty years Ryan has helped build brands, from local startups and cultural institutions to Fortune 500 corporations. His main areas of focus are branding and visual identities, packaging, and interactive design. Over the course of his career Ryan has held design and leadership positions at some of Canada's most awarded agencies, and in 2018 he founded the Branding and Design department of LG2 Toronto, helping grow Canada's largest independent creative agency.

Ryan has worked across every major sector, including finance, technology, retail, fashion, culture, government, transportation, hospitality, energy and food & beverage. His strategic mindset and attention to detail have resulted in recognition from every major international design competition including Cannes Lions, D&AD, the Dieline, the One Show, Clios, ADC, Communication Arts and the ADCC.

Aside from his work at the agency, Ryan has had the pleasure of sitting on a range of national and international design juries including Cannes Lions, London International Awards, Dieline Awards, Communication Arts, Marketing, Applied Arts, Concours Idéa among others.
