Bryan became interested in visualizing the built world at a young age spending time shadowing his father at a local Detroit architectural firm. After spending a year studying photography at Columbia College Chicago and producing photographic studies focusing on architecture he returned to Detroit to study architecture and urban planning. He has received both his Bachelors of Science in Architecture and his Master of Architecture degrees from the University of Detroit Mercy where he found his passion for 3d modeling and visualization. He is now an adjunct instructor of architecture at the University of Detroit Mercy at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Bryan is also a licensed realtor in the state of Michigan, serves on various boards and was the Vice-Chair of the Roseville, MI Downtown Development Authority. His early career was spent working with his father’s independent architectural practice as well as operating as a facility planner for a local manufacturer. He then transitioned into a position as a designer and visualization specialist before founding Vanguard Design Group. Bryan created VDG with the belief that having a background in architecture and design would benefit the project visualization process for both architectural firms and businesses alike. Bryan also works with MVPS Realtors to offer VDG's clients another level of service.
