BIOGRAPHY
I grew up just outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA and trained at Carnegie Mellon's School of Design, St. Gallen, Switzerland's Schule fur Gestaltung and Cooper Union's typeface design program Type@Cooper. I currently reside in Brooklyn, New York and am a full-time freelance designer, illustrator and artist. Additionally, I'm studying at the School of Visual Arts in their Designer as Author & Entrepreneur Master's program as a member of the class of 2015.
The themes of my work vary, but always stay within the parameters of the organic, the natural and the scientific. Each of my pieces is a carefully considered composition of hand lettering, illustration or pattern design built with graphite, ink and/or watercolor paint. I use the computer as a (mostly invisible) tool to help execute my vision. With each new project, I push the boundaries of both the mediums I work in and the themes I work with to create unique final pieces.
This work has been published through collaboration with a variety of clients including HarperCollins, Bon Appétit Magazine, J.Crew, Txikito and Draftfcb. My work has been featured in many books, magazines and blogs. These include Chronicle Book's 'The Little Book of Lettering', Gestalten's 'Los Logos 6', Computer Arts Magazine, ELLE Interiör Magazine, Martha Stewart Weddings' blog and Daily Candy. I have also exhibited my work internationally, including '75 Peters' in Brisbane and London, 'Expletive: Ugly Words to Admire' in Minneapolis, 'Types We Can Make' in New York City and 'Early Bloom' in Brooklyn. |
