Todd Lyda { art director }
Todd Lyda is an award-winning designer with a ringleader’s ability to manage complex projects from concept through completion in both the printed and digital realm. A graduate of University of Tennessee, Knoxville with a BFA in Graphic Design, Todd worked at the prestigious Supon Design Group in Washington D.C. for three years where he specialized in electronic media, working on a number of national accounts and sharpened his art direction skills. Returning to the Nashville area, Todd worked with The Eleazar Group as an Art Director and briefly ran his own firm, Ka.lyda.scope Design. Todd directs the internal design process at Birdsong. Todd is often immersed in a creative rubix problem solving for the web. He loves the collaborative process and that he can turn on the TV, drive down the street or glance at a billboard and know he and his team had something to do with the beautiful that’s going on out there.
