Executive Creative Director and Kamp Grizzly founder, Dan Portrait, has been disrupting the industry since 2009. Portrait’s artistic upbringing during Portland’s early 90’s hotbed of subcultures, music and film would shape the young creative into the future leader that exists today. In 2007, he established Kamp Grizzly as a haven for future purveyors of alternative culture, modern design and social innovation driven by core principles of diversity and equality.

An advocate for community involvement, Portrait is an active supporter of the Oregon Justice Resource Center as well as lead Charter Investor in the Portland Diamond Project’s mission to bring MLB to Oregon. Always looking to the future, he recently added boutique clothing label Last Heavy and print publication Cult Classic to his portfolio.

When Portrait isn’t honing his craft as a member of the Directors Guild of America under the sponsorship of Darren Aronofsky, he’s taking his wife, Sheena, and their three kids on a mission to try every cheeseburger Oregon has to offer.
