OUR TEAM
Wrapped Studios co-founders Ryland and Sam met as freshmen at Pomona College. They formed an instant friendship and determined early in their college careers that they wanted to go into business together upon graduating with degrees in Economics. Sam has had an interest in architecture since he was a young child and wanted to incorporate his passion for design into the business. Ryland, a lifelong artist, is the son of painter Charles Arnoldi. He grew up in an art studio mixing paints, stretching canvases, and creating works of art since he was a very young child. Sam and Ry agreed that art and design had to be the core foundation of the company that eventually evolved into WRAPPED Studios. They spent a year after college traveling around the world studying different cultures and traditions. Avid surfers, outdoorsmen, and adventurers, Ry and Sam shared a quintessential California aesthetic that evolved with travel and time to encompass an international sensibility.
