👋 Hello, I’m Gary Wiese (pronounced “We-see”). I grew up in Colorado, where the outdoors and design shaped the way I see the world. Today, I lead creative work at Xuma in Denver, helping clients bring brands to life through strategy, innovation, and purpose. Also, I wake up absurdly early just to ride bikes.
