Gary Rozanc is a designer, educator, programmer, & researcher living in Chicago Illinois.
Things don’t always turn out as planned and sometimes that’s a good thing.

In 2001 Gary Rozanc dreamed of transitioning from production and occasional freelance designer to Principal of his own firm. To achieve this dream Gary decided to arm himself with knowledge of the design practice beyond production.

What came after enrolling at Cleveland State University in 2003 was a complete surprise to Gary. Instead of running his own firm, Gary fell in love with design education. This love for education motivated Gary to earn a Masters of Fine Arts degree from the University of Arizona.

This path lead Gary to a tenure track, Assistant Professor of Graphic Design position at Columbia College Chicago. Now Gary gets to design curriculum that has been recognized and presented nationally.

Gary still loves to design and his work has been published and exhibited nationally. Currently, Gary’s practice is focused on humor and design’s role in K–12 education as a method for teaching Social Studies and Language Arts.
