Led by our founders, Heather Richman and Chris Simental, RIPE has launched award-winning digital products and experiences for big brands, nonprofits, and everything in between for over 18 years.

We believe that great design solves problems—big or small. We love to work with clients who are looking to push their business forward in new ways through innovative solutions rooted in the power of human connection. We work collaboratively with our clients to develop thoughtful ideas into meaningful projects that make a difference across industries and demographics.

Our team of designers, developers, strategists, and content creators are passionate about combining the latest trends with intuitive design to create beautiful solutions that work seamlessly across all platforms. As a result, RIPE has evolved into a business thought leader who is uniquely able to meet each of our clients where they are at in their branding, marketing, strategy, and communications and take them to the next level.
