About
Two or three sentences in your own voice — how you got here, and what kind of problem makes you sit up. Say the true thing, not the LinkedIn thing.
Twelve years designing across print and screen. Currently independent, previously at Studio and Studio. I work directly with founders and editors, usually from research through production.
