BRUCE VAN PATTER

Alphachimp Studio Inc. — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 15:07:03 +0000

GRAPHIC RECORDING & ILLUSTRATION | PENNSYLVANIA – Bruce can draw fast. Good thing – he’s been tested by nearly 30 years of illustration deadlines and by a decade of drawing in front of live audiences in schools, where he’s entertained and inspired 100,000 students to connect to their own creativity.

He brings to graphic facilitation a speedy marker and a quick wit. With his years of leading brainstorming workshops, Bruce has a keen ear for capturing key concepts and translating them into visuals. He loves to work at the crossroads of creativity and communication.

Living in central Pennsylvania with his wife and children has been perfect fodder for his published picture books, which have various farm animals acting childishly.

Heather Willems

Alphachimp Studio Inc. — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:11:47 +0000

GRAPHIC FACILITATOR | NEW YORK - Trained as a professional artist, Heather came to be a visual practitioner through…waitressing!?! When explaining her creative process to a table of consultants, as “transcribing eavesdropped conversations in to pictorial murals using text and image,” they were more interested in her potential as a graphic recorder than they were in dessert!

Diane Durand

Alphachimp Studio Inc. — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 20:13:43 +0000

MANAGING DIRECTOR | NASHVILLE - Diane has spent most of her life adapting to change. Moving 23 times by the age of 16, she was always the “new girl”. At an early age, she learned the importance of understanding the pattern language of a group and learning how to adapt. Out of this experience, Diane has evolved a powerful emotional intelligence and intuition that serves her well in working with individuals and groups in transition.

NASHVILLE - Along with my wife, Diane, I co-founded Alphachimp Studio Inc., an information graphics and facilitation firm, in 1998 in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood. We moved to Pittsburgh after 9/11 for five great years living in the Mexican War Streets, and now live on Nashville’s West End. I always imaged Diane and I would be like Ray and Charles Eames. But we are more like Barney and Betty Rubble. These days, Diane is busy with two little girls, and I am just the ghost in the machine--the company is really run by out fantastic virtual assistants, Launa and Becky. And, the talent lies with the other graphic recorders and facilitators who serve our clients around North America, Europe and Asia.
