Welcome to my portfolio, my name is Troy Mueller and I am currently working as the Senior Graphic Designer for the Vegas Golden Knights of the NHL, though I hardly consider it work. Being able to combine my passion for design and love for the sport of hockey for a career is more than I could ever ask for. I am a graduate from Robert Morris University in Chicago with a Bachelor’s in Graphic Design.
