Uprise was founded in 2010 and is owned and operated by two University of Nebraska - Lincoln graduates, Kyle Jensen and Alex James. Both graduated with graphic design degrees. They had a passion for art and design, Uprise became the outlet to express their creativity.
The idea of starting Uprise came to be at a Husker tailgate in the fall of 2010 shortly after graduation. At first it was just a casual conversation, which turned into meetings trying to figure out what a business plan was, and just a couple months later they opened their doors.
"We have come along way since our start and have learned a lot along the way - both about how to run a business and about life."
