I'm an Ottawa based Graphic Designer who grew up in Hawkesbury. My focuses are branding and typography.
Why did you become a graphic designer?
I became a Graphic Designer because my girlfriend saw the potential I had and told me to look into a graphic design college program. After that, I fell in love with Design.
Where do you go for inspiration?
For inspiration I have a ton of Websites I visit almost every day. Abduzzedo, Designspiration, Behance etc. But what I like most are magazines. Computer Arts is my all time favorite. And I can't forget... Music.
Who is your favourite designer?
Wow tough question. I have two. Stefan Sagmeister and Jon Contino.
What typefaces could you not live without?
My hand. I think handlettering is the most beautiful way to make typography, but if I had to answer I'd say DIN (but I change alot).
How would you describe your style and/or your design process?
Simple, clean, fun and dynamic
What advice would you give to a new designer first starting out?
Be curious, I think that's the best advice I've ever been given.
