• I am a multidisciplinary graphic designer and writer living in New York City. My projects have involved designing identities, motion graphics, web sites, exhibition graphics, and publications, along with consulting as a strategist and art director. I look for research-oriented projects that challenge my thinking and form-making skills, but I'm especially interested in collaborating with non-profits and civic organizations that need help to address complex social problems.

• I'm an avid writer. It's an important part of the way I work and I've also been fortunate to write for some great organizations like Core77 and Designer's Review of Books. I recently wrote a book about strategies that can help community-based graphic design projects become more effective. It includes 20 projects from around the country and is published by Princeton Architectural Press. Visit the book website to learn more.

• I've taught design classes at Maryland Institute College of Art, Fordham University, and currently Parsons The New School for Design. In Fall 2012, I'll be teaching a new course called "Designing for Social Change," where students will work with communities and use design to address complex social problems.
