DanYoumans
Bay Area
Born in Minneapolis, raised in Iowa, Dan Youmans is a midwestern at heart. After graduating in 2000, Dan entered the workforce with a passion for all things printed. While in Des Moines Dan spent time at a few agency's where he sharpened his craft, winning numerous design awards from the Art Director's Association of Iowa.
In 2006 Dan decided to make the jump from the midwest to California taking a position at Duarte Design. Working directly with Apple, Dan got to see first hand the quality and attention to detail that Apple demands. It was here that Dan took his work to another level by working side-by-side with some of the best designers in the industry.
Dan is now a Senior Designer for ODA, a branding agency in San Francisco. Constantly looking for new inspiration, Dan's love of the outdoors, music and films continue to drive his creativity. Dan doesn't subscribe to any particular style, but one that is constantly evolving. His work is fresh and unique and always on target with his clients. When he's not designing for the masses, Dan resides in the Bay Area with his amazing wife Sara and their little Jack Russell, Bailey.
