About
A designer with a printer's instincts.
I've spent nine years designing identity, editorial, and packaging systems for studios, publishers, and small luxury brands. Before going independent I led identity at Hold Studio and worked at Pentagram NYC.
My work tends to be quiet, considered, and slightly old-fashioned in its relationship to craft. I care about ink coverage, kerning, and the way a cover stock catches light. I care less about what's trending this quarter.
I take on four to six client engagements a year, usually long enough to ship something into the world that we both feel good about.
