Michael Afonso

Founder

Welcome! I’m Michael, a designer at heart—that’s where my journey began 13 years ago. In 2023, I launched my own independent studio, and since then, we’ve experienced incredible growth. I’m truly grateful to be working in a field I love.

Iryna Blagoder

CMO

Hi! I’m Iryna, the marketing brain behind Good Riot. I started in SEO and worked my way up to Digital Acquisition Manager within a prestigious agency in New York City. Now I lead strategy and funnels for all our clients within Good Riot.

We focus on what will really move the needle for your company–no detours or busywork. Founders often say they chose to work with us because we're fast generalists who combine a strategic outlook with hands-on design craft. We do have a point of view, but we collaborate well with internal teams.
