As 2002 was coming to a close and the recession was settling in, friends Michael Stinson and Rachel Elnar were finding companies who wanted to make their voice heard but couldn't cut through the visual clutter of the marketplace. So they decided to join forces to help them develop one clear voice that told on-going brand stories through various design media. Their purpose was to elevate the level of visual communications with their 25 years of combined expertise. And from this partnership of multidisciplinary know-how, Ramp Creative was created and long-lasting brands were born.
