Alex Reynolds is Co-Vice Chair for IDSA’s Rocky Mountain Region. He currently works as a free-lance Industrial Designer for reynolds DESIGN & INNOVATION as well as an Adjunct Graphic Design Instructor for CollegeAmerica.
He is most noted for his work with pediatric dentistry and the redesign of the dental handpiece (dental drill). Examples of this work can be found at his company’s website, www.reynoldsDESIGNandINNOVATION.com. Alex has joined IDSA in order to become a part of, and to contribute to, his local Industrial Design community. He is a passionate designer who believes that it is the smallest of details that really make the biggest difference.
Alex originally graduated from Colorado State University with a bachelor’s degree in Business that was focused on Marketing. After CSU, he went to Auburn University where he received his Master’s Degree in Industrial Design. He earned 2nd place in engineering division of Auburn University’s Graduate Forum for his thesis work on the dental handpiece. He was also asked to speak about that work at the 2010 Design and Emotion Conference that was put on by the Spertus Institute and the Design and Emotion Society. Part of this work was published for that conference.
Since graduating in 2008 he has run his own free-lance design business, reynolds DESIGN & INNOVATION.
Though he has been an active IDSA member for years, working as the Co-Vice Chair is the first IDSA position Alex has held. With that position, he hopes to pull together the Industrial Design community in the Fort Collins and Loveland area of Colorado.
