How does the art you collect and display inspire your professional work?
"The artwork I display is a direct reflection of my interests and experiences. I enjoy mixing colors, patterns, and textures. I try to infuse those elements into my work, and I encourage my students to pay attention to those elements when creating work of their own, as well.

In my office, I have a pair of framed Hammerpress letter-pressed concert posters that hang behind me. There is not a day that goes by that I don't turn around to look at the typography and color in those posters. I always want to bring that kind of beauty into my designs; seeing those posters everyday is a beautiful reminder of what I love to see and do."
