Vincent M Rivera is a Graphic Designer based out of Queens, NY. As a native New Yorker, he has a passion for good pizza, good music, and good design. He believes that good design, from architecture to print, is showcased at its best when form and function are married.
Vincent earned his Baccalaureate of Science in Graphic Design at Queens College (and graduated on the Dean's list 👏). While in college, Vincent completed two internships, one with Queens Economic Development Corp partnering with a small business owner and one with The One Club partnering with DDB New York. He also participated in student art exhibits, and completed volunteer art projects, including the scanning and light retouching of hundred year old photos for the Calandra Italian American Institute.
Since graduating he developed his brand, Citizen76, and worked on side projects with an emphasis on typography. He photographs hand painted signs in the environment, designs unique resumes, and creates personal hand lettered art pieces.
Vincent's personal interests include listening to music (from Jim Morrison to The Weeknd), harvesting a modest vinyl collection, poetry, drawing, painting, papier-mache, photography, and typography.
