"The Case of the Creative Guy from Grayslake"
Hi, I’m Ross, the one-man show behind Cases by Ross. Two years ago, I set out on a mission right here in Grayslake, Illinois, armed with nothing but a creative streak, a love for this great country, and, well... a pretty scratched-up phone case.

You see, creativity has always been my thing. As a professional photographer, I’ve spent years capturing incredible moments—from the roar of the Chicago Bears’ stadium to quiet portraits that tell a thousand words. But one day, while editing a photo of a local hero—a firefighter holding the American flag—it hit me. Phones are basically mini art galleries we take everywhere, so why not make them stand out?

And just like that, Cases by Ross was born.

My mission? To create phone cases that weren’t just protective but also told stories, made statements, and—most importantly—celebrated the things that matter most.

Take my patriotic designs, for example. As someone who deeply respects our military, firefighters, and police officers, I create cases that honor their bravery and sacrifice. Whether it’s the American flag waving proudly or a firefighter’s emblem shining bright, I pour my heart into these designs. Each case is my way of saying, Thank you for your service—oh, and please don’t drop your phone.

But don’t let the patriotic pride fool you—Cases by Ross isn’t just stars, stripes, and heroism. I’ve also got a flair for the fun and fashionable. From sleek, abstract art that belongs in a gallery to bold designs for fashionistas who believe their phones deserve to look as stylish as they do, I’ve got something for everyone.

Running a one-man shop isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it. Every time someone orders a case, I feel like I’m making a small connection with someone who shares my passion—whether that’s for bold designs, honoring our heroes, or simply protecting their phone from the occasional butterfingers moment.

So if you’re looking for a case that stands out, tells a story, and maybe even gets a laugh, you’ve come to the right place. Whether you’re a proud patriot, a fashion-forward trendsetter, or someone who just really loves abstract art, I’ve got a case for you.

And if you’re ever in Grayslake, swing by. You might catch me working on my next design idea—probably with coffee in one hand and a phone case prototype in the other.

Cases by Ross: Protecting phones, celebrating heroes, and making life just a little more creative—one case at a time.
