Mark
Hello! I’m a graphic designer, artist, and academic from the US, based in Berlin. I design print, web, and animated projects and teach graphic design and typography. My art combines analog and digital processes including animation, collage, typography, and writing, and has been shown across the US and internationally.

I care about language, textures and patterns, effective educational strategies, and figuring out what “home” means.
