Influenced by a background in analogue design and illustration, I’m working to create the ‘go to’ library for graphic display fonts.

After a childhood consumed by books, films and endless hours drawing, I left school with clear aspirations towards a career in art and design. My first job out of school was as an assistant designer for small children’s book publisher near my home in Somerset (a very lucky find). This gave me vital experience in industry fundamentals while introducing me to the now obsolete paste-up process, just as it was being replaced by computer programs such as Photoshop, Quark XPress, and InDesign.

These quickly became popular on marketplaces such as Creative Market, and eventually funded a year long diploma in motion graphics for film and television in London. Inspired by my creative heroes Saul Bass, Dan Perri, and Pablo Ferro, this was a period devoted to film titles and opening/ending credit sequences, influencing my font work today.

Recently, I’ve worked with major studios in the production of film trailers, titles, and branding concepts, and via Wingsart Studio have fed this professional experience into a series of display fonts targeted at the entertainment industry. They’ve gained a reputation for a fun, retro aesthetic, some of which you might have already seen on Marvel’s She-Hulk, Dungeons & Dragons, Stranger Things, and Apple Arcade.
