Printing, prototyping and product manufacturing

Hands on fabrication is at the core of my process. Below is an outline of my experience in small batch production using a variety of different methods of production.

Printed media

  • Self published booklets

  • Zine

  • Posters

  • Flyers

  • Pamphlets

Mediums I have experience with include screen printing, digital printing, and risograph printing. I have worked with print shops and printed files myself, but I always design for easy manufacturing.

I cut, bind and staple booklets then sell them in-person at print markets such as the Cincinnati Art Book Fair. I’m skilled in different methods of adhesion, hanging, binding, trimming both high and low quantities of print production.

Cardboard, Print and Packaging design

  • Design nets and die lines in Adobe Illustrator

  • Cut paths using laser cutter or by hand

  • Low fidelity to high fidelity prototyping

These prototypes were printed at a local print shop then cut, folded and tested by me to serve its purpose as an e-commerce mailer for a DIY Mushroom Grow Kit.
