ABOUT ME

I am an independent lettering designer and illustrator specialised in branding assets and calligraphy education.

My creative practice is set by the principals of never stop learning, sharing knowledge and create emotion through my work.

In 2011 I studied a Postgraduate Course in Advanced Typography in Barcelona, and in 2012 a Typeface Design Condensed Program at Cooper Union in New York City.

Nowadays, I split my time between Melbourne and Barcelona working in partnership with brand design agencies, helping them craft and develop their identity systems with emotionally charged visual elements including display type, logo design, monograms, wordmarks, lettering, illustration, patterning, packaging and digital assets.
