I've been designing font posters for Microsoft that are showcased in the Microsoft Font Library, in Word Online, and on Adobe and Monotype. Many fonts we've used for decades have not had graphics, and it's been fun to bring them to life! #fonts #typography

I am pleased to be accepted as a new type foundry with @TypeNetwork—a reputable type foundry with a boutique offering of high quality fonts. I have a soft spot for TN, as they mentored me early in my career in the creation of my Mr Gabe font. https://t.co/dwM53xbggq

@TiroTypeworks Beautiful tribute. So sorry for your loss. 🩵

@TiroTypeworks @ThomasJockin Close, but the terminals on the ‘e’ are different… Pros and cons to creating a more anonymous typeface or logo!

It was so fun to dust off my Capitol Hill Lettering Tour and be with @cornishdesign students again! Previous colleague and sign painter Jake added his invaluable sign painting knowledge which made it even more interesting.

It was great to be in person with the Amazon Devices & Services team today at their Town Hall. Inspiring projects, and also a little analysis of presentation typography. 🤓
