About me

Designer/typesetter/editor with over 30 years' hands-on experience and particular expertise in full-colour books, corporate reports, large document preparation, and task automation. I'm brilliant with complicated and bespoke projects, but equally enjoy bringing a keen eye to contract typesetting within an established house style. Either way, I employ ruthless attention to detail with both content and presentation.
