Teaching makes me a better person and a better designer.
Which courses do you teach?
Graphic Studio 301 and 302, isn't that what it's called?
Why do you teach?
Because it makes me a better person and a better designer.
What brought you to Cornish?
In January 2000 I was asked to co-teach a class and somehow my name ended up on the next semester's class schedule.
Where do you draw inspiration from?
People who march to a different drummer.
What drew you to your field?
I didn't know how to do anything else and didn't see my self working in an office environment. Luckily I met my business partner in college and he was the person who encouraged me to pursue design as a career. Before meeting Mike I wanted to be an art teacher.
Tell us about your creative process:
It's different for every project but I usually start by scratching my head.
What projects are you currently working on?
A book project for Modern Dog, posters for the Crocodile Cafe and design work for Adobe.
What do you do for fun?
All the usual stuff that when I write it down makes me sound like an average person.
What do you like most about Cornish?
The new logo.
Anything else you would like to share?
I have a grumpy dog named Pete and a really expensive Bianchi road bike. I like to drink wine every night and my favorite TV show is The Office. My dream is to find a client who will pay my company enough money so that I can work remotely from a villa in Tuscany.
