I am a designer, educator, and publisher living in Austin, Texas. I am a co-founder of Track and Field Publications where I use publications and experimental print to explore how motion, typography, and design systems translate across media. At Texas State University, I work as an Associate Professor of Communication Design and Coordinator of the BFA program.

I have presented and exhibited my work internationally at venues that include Columbia University, MICA, Boston University, Haus der Kulturen der Welt, American University of Sharjah, Pioneer Works, and Knockdown Center. My writing has appeared in publications from Focal Press and MIT Press. Since starting in 2006 as an Art Director at the Chicago Tribune, I have worked as a designer with Whitehouse & Company, Trollbäck+Company, and C&G Partners on projects for Union Station (Washington, DC), Prudential Financial, JPMorgan Chase, Game Show Network, Fuse, and the Nonprofit Finance Fund. 

Previously, I taught at SUNY New Paltz, served as Critic in Illustration at RISD, and taught at Parsons. I hold an MFA from RISD, a BFA from SAIC, and a BA from the University of Chicago.

The title of the publication comes from “I’ve Seen It All” from the soundtrack to Lars Von Trier’s Dancer in the Dark. The work connects a memory of experiencing the fall of the Berlin Wall, watching the Scorpions video for “Wind of Change” as a child during Perestroika and looking for pieces of the Berlin wall on eBay.
