Chad Smith (b. 1987 Potsdam, NY) is an illustrator and motion designer located in Baltimore, MD.
I’m from the most northern part of New York - an hour from Canada, an hour from Vermont.
I graduated with an MFA from the University of Wisconsin. Professionally at Wisconsin I illustrated, designed, and created motion graphics for the University's zoology and ophthalmology departments. I now work at the University of Maryland doing most of the same things but for all research areas at the University.
I like lots of things but spend most of my time dragging the dogs around, looking for mushrooms, and finding ways to get in large bodies of water.
