| Introduction | I've been a graphic designer for almost 30 years, owning my own business for 15 of them. I fell into education on the college level and it has been my passion for the last 12 years. I am a type geek who is a big fan of the software LetterMPress. Humor in advertising fascinates and excites me...when it's done well. Smart copy that speaks directly to me, now that's art. Helvetica, yes. Hobo, never. I support AIGA and AAF. I'm trying to like Greek yogurt. My favorite color is orange (thanks, Blogger). |
