Riley

Tell us about yourself?

I'm a simple guy that enjoys a good laugh and a good tune. I grew up in southeastern Wisconsin (where corn grows) and recently moved to the Twin Cities. You can usually find me listening to an abundant amount of music, jogging, and laughing. I just recently noticed how awesome the Discovery channel is, Time Warp, Mythbusters, Survivor Man, these are all shows I could watch for hours. As for music, I’m all over the map, but artists that continue to win me over are The Mars Volta, Radiohead, Cloud Cult, My Morning Jacket and MF Doom.

What's your background?

I'm pretty much straight out of college, with my degree in Video and Motion Graphics. Prior to this I worked in Television News as an Editor and Floor Director. Other than that, I’ve done some freelancing and interning.

What inspires you?

Music, Art, Nature, Friends and Family

What's it like working at DWS?

Working at Dreamworld is defiantly an experience. I remember my first day thinking, this can't be right, people working and having fun? I didn't think it existed. Yes, I do realize how corny that sounds, but it’s the truth. There is plenty of laughter, outrageous comments, inside jokes, knowledge and talent here. It’s awesome.
