Wanted to be a graphic designer at age 12. He is now 22, and has graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Maryland Institute College of Art with a degree in Graphic Design. Next, he is off to The Netherlands to attend the Type and Media master program at the Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten to study typeface design from the best. Favorite activities besides typeface design include letterpress printing, cooking, collecting Penguin paperbacks, and searching for old painted signs while in his red Volvo station wagon.
