There is no
“i” in B’stro.

Meet the team.

We figure that nothing new ever happens if you just sit around finishing each other’s sentences. That could be why B’stro represents so many ages, races and nationalities. But even though we’re different, we’re in this together: working hard, reaching goals, and sharing talents. Being surrounded by peers who look out for each other brings out the best in all of us.

Antonio Rusevski

Art Director / Design Ninja

Nic Lembck

Designer-Illustrator / Culture Junkie

“Artistic” doesn’t begin to do justice to Nic. B’stro’s resident Renaissance Man has explored every facet of his creativity... and then some. While attending Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, he got bitten by the music bug and became a radio DJ. Not content with expanding Sin City’s musical sensibilities over the airwaves, he began to get very involved in L.A.’s music scene. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that he plays guitar, bass, banjo, accordion, and piano. read more about Nic

Debbie Yoon

Designer / Queen of the Web Frontier

Debbie’s home town of Edison, New Jersey was named for the inventor of the lightbulb — Thomas Edison. So perhaps it’s not surprising that it has produced so many illustrious alumnae like Susan Sarandon, B’stro’s founder — Jill B’ — and of course, Debbie Yoon, one of B’stro’s most talented designers. read more about Debbie

Tyler Wilman

Senior Designer / Brains and Brawn

Don’t let Tyler’s hard jawline fool you; on the inside, he’s full of warm bread pudding. In fact, Tyler spent a good portion of his youth trying to reconcile his reality of being an accomplished jock, and his fantasy of being a malnourished artist. The result is a designer with biceps. read more about Tyler
