Matt Dutra

Matt is Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Rubic Design + Interactive. In addition to acquiring clients such as the Harvard Law School's Berkman Center, Golden Village Cinemas and Schoolyard Inc., Matt designs the strategy, process and team needed to achieve client's branding and communication goals. Before founding the RDI studio, Matt spent years in corporate communications design evolving into the kind of designer needed most today - a multidisciplinary designer who understands digital brand experiences and how to adapt and deliver campaigns through online, social and viral channels. Matt has specialized in web, interactive and user experience design since 2000 -- when he worked with Fortune 500 clients such as Cape Cod Bank & Trust, Vermont Teddy Bear Company and the MA Audubon Society. As an early adaptor of Internet technologies, Matt helped design and develop the first content management system used by The Stamford Advocate and Greenwich Times Newspapers. More recently, he was awarded a scholarship by RIDEC’s Business Innovation Factory (BIF) and was selected from 500 candidates world-wide to design a series of print and interactive travel guides for Singapore’s leading publisher (Metro Holdings, PTE). Matt received degrees in Graphic Art and Art History from the University of Vermont and lives a short walk from the beach in Newport, Rhode Island with his wife and their huskey "Jack".
