Oluwatobi (Tobi) Ariyo is a Pediatric Physician by trade and a Multifaceted Creative at heart. With both Nigerian roots and Philadelphia grit, this First-Generation girlie was destined to win. (Go Birds! iykyk).

Her passion for life translates in all of her endeavors. Majoring in Biological Basis of Behavior at The University of Pennsylvania, she always resonated with the connection of mind, body, and spirit—and continues to do so as a Pediatrician. Currently based in Chicago, her bio-psycho-social approach is the foundation of her clinical practices and she is deeply committed to advocating for accessible, quality care and mental health—all while maintaining her love for creativity, fashion, and style.

She now finds herself at the beautiful intersection of alignment and purpose. After years of freelance styling and innovative endeavors, in September 2025 she is officially launching Looks.ByTobi—a Creative Consultancy for brands & people meant to be more than one thing. She uses her many talents, including style, emotional intelligence, and relatability, as a bold introduction to her visionary mindset. It is this very mindset that is used in her concomitant role as Campaign Strategist for one of the newest (and soon-to-be hottest) digital lifestyle platforms, The Brownstone Magazine. Forever the lifelong learner, she is also currently enrolled in the Parsons School of Design x Complex online Program.

Tobi provides a voice to those who refuse to be confined to a box; instead her layered passions are exactly what set her apart. She embodies what it looks like to fully show up as your authentic self—with confidence and without apology.
