Riley Scott

Technical Developer, Aritzia

Riley holds a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Environmental Studies from the University of Victoria and is an alumnus of the Technical Apparel Design program at KPU.  He currently works as a Technical Developer specializing in outerwear with Aritzia and Reigning Champ. 

Having started in permaculture landscape design and carpentry, his career has diverged over the years to encapsulate many areas of development; however, a common thread of creativity and a love for natural spaces has remained at the core of his professional goals. He was spurred by his passion for climbing, ski touring, mountain biking, and trail running to transition to the apparel space with a vision to develop the garments essential to his outdoor pursuits. 

Riley is driven by a desire to create, and is guided by his interest in end-to-end sustainable design, elevated fit, and innovative construction solutions.
