Education
California College of the Arts
Graphic Design BFA
At CCA, I paired my Graphic Design degree with a self-initiated concentration in printmaking and book arts. Taking classes in letterpress and bookbinding has strengthened my craft skills and has allowed me to expand my conceptual notions of how the book form can evolve and communicate in a tactile way.
