 Tyler Rice, Owner of AxelRad Screen Printing

Tyler’s passion and propensity for business are genetic; he comes from generations of hard-working entrepreneurial men and women. As a middle child with 5 siblings, work ethic was a key component to fuel his independence that started with part-time jobs at the age of 15. During the last few years of high school, Tyler developed an interest in graphic design, and, post-graduation, decided to teach himself the programs that he would need to be successful. Tyler was quickly hired at the age of 18 based on his abilities and entered the digital media industry. The screen print and embroidery world became his home nearly 10 years ago and he has gone on to learn every aspect of the industry to help build AxelRad into the business it is today. Tyler loves what he does and enjoys creatively helping others by giving back to the community whenever possible.
