A graphic designer and print production specialist based in New York. I studied Studio Arts at Bard College, where I also ran the digital print lab, and since then I've worked on the production side of design: quoting, prepress, press operation, and getting files ready to print. Most recently I handled design and production at Minuteman Press in Red Hook, NY, and I'm now looking for my next role in graphic design or print production. I like work with bold type, a sense of humor, and a clear idea behind it, and I care about how it holds up once it's printed.
