Doc Reed is a full-time, in-house creative who also moonlights under the moniker Reedicus, an illustration and design studio.

Doc’s love for crafting illustrations and storytelling comes first, while utilizing design to connect with the world around it. “Stay Wild” was born out of Doc’s desire to live a life that brings wonder into the 9-to-5 office cubical. Not so long ago, people interacted with the world around them in a state of awe and intrigue. “Stay Wild” is a mantra to put away the computer and engage with the world, to be open to new adventures. A challenge posed to creatives to interact with the world so that, when the time comes, they can craft better and more creative solutions.
