Corbet runs a full service graphic design firm named Riverbed. They specialize in brand strategy and sustainable design practices. Riverbed wants to empower brands for companies and organizations that represent social responsibility, transparency of truth and sustainability. They create positive identities that change the interaction between brands and their consumers to a mutually supported system of bettering themselves and the world

Corbet also serves on the board for AIGA Seattle as the Illustration Director and on the board for Fremont Community School.

Corbet has developed a unique method of working with images and symbols that formulate distinct visuals to communicate complex ideas in simple ways. This process is called iconography. It combines shared visual knowledge, mathematics and design to create a brand's specific visual language. This language clarifies my client's core values and messages to the target audience. I translate these messages in to all forms of visual communication from print to interactive, environmental and beyond.

I want to work with positive brands, companies or organizations that have great things to say, sell or engage in. These organizations need high level brand and design services to compete with the established companies in their industry. I want to give them the voice they need to do great things.
