Rio Hayama

Hi! I am a scientific and medical illustrator based in New York.

I am currently an undergraduate student at the Rochester Institute of Technology, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Medical Illustration and minor in health communications. My work reflects my passion for both environmental conservation and public health.

I volunteer-work for the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, currently preparing data visualizations for the upcoming 2025 UN World Ocean Conference. During this spring semester I also have an internship at Moving Pictures, serving as medical animator and illustrator for an upcoming series on obstructive sleep apnea.

In my free time I love doing editorial illustration, working with clients for Science AAAS Immunology and Nature Aging. I am also a student member of the Data Visualization Society.

Thank you so much for visiting my website! I am always excited to interact with new clients on projects, so do not hesitate to contact me below.
