TONY FRUSCIANTE
Creative Director/Art+Design
Summary
I have been lucky enough to learn from great people in my time. It may have come in the form of a seasoned bike messenger calling me a rookie in SF, or a Himalyan sherpa pointing the way when I was lost in Nepal, or a former mentor letting me know how to be a PRO when I was an intern.
My journey has now brought me back to the States and to my hometown of Portland, Oregon. I am looking for a team of new freinds who are curious and want to do great work. Let’s be inspired and see just how far we can go. To view my previous work, go to tonyfrusciante.com
