Raul Gutierrez

Raul Gutierrez is the founder and CEO of Tinybop, the Brooklyn-based design studio. Tinybop brings together researchers, artists, and engineers to build digital toys that delight and educate children. Their award-winning app, The Human Body, has been recognized by Fast Company, Wired, Common Sense Media, teachers, and countless parents for its play-based approach to educational application design. The first in a series, The Human Body has been downloaded 4.9 million times and was featured as an App Store Best of 2013.

Before forming Tinybop in 2012, Raul had a 20-year career at the intersection of technology and the arts: from working at Paramount Pictures for producer Scott Rudin to designing large-scale web campaigns for movie studios and building the first incarnation of the art site 20x200. He’s also a photographer, occasional blogger, and collector of unusual objects. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and two sons.

Tinybop’s next children’s apps will be available in spring 2014.
