Matt Magill, MFA
Visiting Assistant Professor
Matt Magill is a designer, illustrator, musician, educator, and all-around creative person from Oklahoma. Matt received his BFA in Visual Communication from the University of Oklahoma in 2013 and MFA in Graphic Design & Visual Experience from the Savannah College of Art & Design in 2025. Matt’s philosophy of design is that if designers intend to create and define the future, then they need to start treating their positions like it actually matters. A designer’s primary focus should always be on the improvement of people’s lives by using all the tools at our disposals that we have to do so. This means design should focus on empathy and accessibility rather than focus on profitability and engagement. Matt has had the opportunity to work with Austin City Limits, SXSW, Greystar Worldwide, University of Oklahoma Health Science Center, University of Texas, Pabst Blue Ribbon, and a bunch of others. He was also a breakout speaker at SEGD Conference in 2019, and currently serves as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at Oklahoma State University.
